What drives eviction risk in Joliet
Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 2/10.
Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2/10. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 3/10.
Food insecurity runs 10.3% against 17.8% nationally. This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Joliet. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
Nationally it ranks #48,956 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 5% 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 38% of renters.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
