Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Rock Island
Average gross rent is $1,122, 33% above the Rock Island average. The main counterweight is economic stress at 2.4/10. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.6/10.
On the high side, housing-court posture reads 7.6/10. It sits 0.8 points below the Rock Island County average of 4.6. That is riskier than roughly 38% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 11% 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 3.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $78,203, 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 housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
