Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Wilshire

The voucher gap is 34.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The severe-burden share is 26%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.5/10.

Running hot, supply constraint reads 8.5/10. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. Against the Winnebago County average of 4.3, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.3 points.

Food insecurity runs 8.9% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 7.3% against 15.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 14% 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 2.6/10.

Against average income of $107,411, annual rent is just 18%.

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.
