Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lavergne
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.8/10. Cost burden runs 56% here against 45.6% across Cook County. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.1/10. The filing record is not thin: 478 evictions over 15 years of observation.
The worst year on record was 2012, when 7.0% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Chicago. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 4.0% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 78% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.
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.
