Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hershey Grove

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.1/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.9/10. Against the McLean County average of 4.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.5 points.

Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Food insecurity runs 7.7% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 6.0% against 15.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,195, 14% above the Bloomington average.

That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 1.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $96,658, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 2.0 points cooler.

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.
