What drives eviction risk in Frankfort
The heaviest input here is economic stress at 8.6/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from West Frankfort, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Franklin County average of 5.4 and in line with the Illinois statewide average of 5.4. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
