Clearing Eviction Risk: Moderate , Chicago

62% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Cook County average of 45.6%. At $2,079 a month, rents run 44% over what the rest of Chicago commands.

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.5/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10.

The voucher gap is 18.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Court records carry 268 eviction filings across 15 observed years.

Adults with no health insurance runs 18.9% against 11.3% nationally. Filings peaked in 2013 at 6.4% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

In a typical year about 4.0% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 76th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 24% 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
