Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Barrington

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.3/10. At $1,909 a month, rents run 27% over what the rest of Barrington commands. It sits 1.2 points below the Lake County average of 4.4.

Cost burden runs 49% here against 42.6% across Lake County. Housing insecurity runs 5.5% against 14.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 23% 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 4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $175,656, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
