Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Val-E-Vue

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.5/10. It sits 1.1 points below the Sangamon County average of 4.2.

That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 18% 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.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.9/10. Against average income of $82,140, annual rent is just 14%.

Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 2.0 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 36% of renters. Average gross rent is $961, close to the Springfield average.

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