Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Westmont

On the national scale it lands near the 83rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.7/10. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.6 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. 42% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. Average gross rent is $1,635, close to the Westmont average.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $81,352. 55% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
