Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dauphin Park
Cost burden runs 65% here against 45.6% across Cook County. The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. SNAP participation runs 63.6% against 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity runs 55.0% against 17.8% nationally. Annualized rent equals 51% of average household income of $23,750, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
The poverty rate is 58%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10.
Against the Cook County average of 6.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.0 points. 73% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
Average gross rent is $1,017, 29% below the Chicago average. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10. Court records carry 522 eviction filings across 15 observed years.
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.
