Andersonville Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 6,728 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.3–5.5

Andersonville takes in 2 census tracts of Chicago, IL and houses 6,728 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.2/10.

Against a Chicago baseline of 29.3%, 39% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10. 15% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

Disability prevalence reaches 17.8% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. Filings are well documented here: 417 across 2 observed tracts. Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 7.5/10.

Average gross rent is $1,668, 16% above the Chicago average of $1,440. SNAP participation is 6.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Filing activity peaked in 2008 at 2.6% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 1.0% in 2015, is well off that peak.

Among the 187 mapped neighborhoods of Chicago, it ranks #161 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, Schorsch Forest View and Central Station score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

With little internal variation, 5.4/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
