Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Bull Valley
Average gross rent is $1,821, 48% below the Bull Valley average. The clearest offset is economic stress at 2.2/10.
Running cool, tenant-organizing strength reads 2.3/10. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Food insecurity runs 8.4% against 17.8% nationally.
SNAP participation runs 7.1% against 15.2% nationally. Nationally it ranks #52,479 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
At 2% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $141,875, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.3 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
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.
