Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Burlington
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.9/10. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Average gross rent is $1,215, 20% below the Burlington average. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 6 evictions over 3 years of observation.
Food insecurity runs 10.0% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2009 at 2.4% of renter households.
In a typical year about 1.5% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 31st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Only 15% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 2.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $119,821, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.6 points cooler.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
