Canaryville Eviction Risk: Elevated

18 census tracts · pop 33,922 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.4/10 · range 5.6–8.1

Canaryville spans 18 census tracts of Chicago, IL and houses 33,922 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.4/10, in the Elevated tier. 41% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Chicago rate of 29.3%.

The 18 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 5.6 to 8.1, a 2.5-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Food insecurity affects 38.7% of adults, 20.9 points above the national rate.

The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1.8/10. 20.1% 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.

At $1,077 a month, rents sit 25% under what the rest of Chicago commands. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10.

The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Filings are well documented here: 5,200 across 16 observed tracts.

Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 7.5/10. The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 24.3% of renter households.

Among the 187 mapped neighborhoods of Chicago, it ranks #81 by risk, the middle third. Judgments average 1.5% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

For a like-for-like read, Pacific Junction and Corwith score within a fraction of it.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
