Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Gurnee
Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1.5/10. At $1,144 a month, rents run 31% under what the rest of Gurnee commands.
The severe-burden share is 16%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. That is riskier than roughly 59% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 14% 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 5.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $104,333, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Lake County average of 4.4 closely.
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.
