Becks Park Eviction Risk: High
10 census tracts · pop 18,910 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 8.1/10 · range 7.7–8.1
Becks Park is a 10-tract neighborhood of Chicago, IL and houses 18,910 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 8.1/10, in the High tier. Against a Chicago baseline of 29.3%, 54% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Food insecurity affects 47.8% of adults, 30.0 points above the national rate. 26.4% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The severe-burden share is 33%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. At $934 a month, rents sit 35% under what the rest of Chicago commands.
Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1.1/10. The poverty rate is 34%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. 78% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.
On the high side is economic stress at 8.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10.
Court records carry 8,714 eviction filings across its 10 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2002, when filings touched 14.3% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 8.5% in 2015, is well off that peak.
That places it #1 of 187 neighborhoods in Chicago.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
