Analysis
What drives eviction risk in East Peoria
The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 7/10. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. That is riskier than roughly 55% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 22% 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. The legal-climate inputs (statute speed, court posture, rent-regulation exposure) come from East Peoria eviction risk as a whole. Only the economic and supply signals are measured inside this tract.
Social vulnerability reads 1.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $74,913, annual rent is just 15%.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 36% of renters.
It tracks the Tazewell County average of 4.2 closely. Average gross rent is $954, close to the East Peoria average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
