Food insecurity runs 9.2% against 17.8% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.8/10. Against average income of $155,000, annual rent is just 14%.

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.
