What drives eviction risk in East Humboldt Park
What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 9.9/10. Average gross rent is $2,623, 82% above the Chicago average. The voucher gap is 49.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10. Disability prevalence runs 16.4% against 31.5% nationally.
Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. Food insecurity runs 8.5% against 17.8% nationally. The severe-burden share is 10%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 65 filings here across 14 tracked years. Against the Cook County average of 6.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points.
The worst year on record was 2001, when 2.9% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Chicago. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
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.
