Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lake Charlotte
What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 10/10. At $2,843 a month, rents run 56% over what the rest of St. Charles commands. The voucher gap is 61.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Against the Kane County average of 4.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. Food insecurity runs 8.5% against 17.8% nationally.
SNAP participation runs 6.5% against 15.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 13% 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. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 2.1 points cooler.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
