Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Delavan
The heaviest input here is eviction process difficulty at 5.3/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Tazewell County average of 4.9 and below the Illinois statewide average of 5.4. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
In CDC survey modeling, about 10.1% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 6.8% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 16th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
