Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Gladstone Park

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side, regional political climate reads 7.5/10.

Court records carry 225 eviction filings across 15 observed years. Average gross rent is $1,588, 10% above the Chicago average.

The worst year on record was 2003, when 2.8% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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.

In a typical year about 1.9% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 76th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 21% 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. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.4/10.

Against average income of $109,242, annual rent is just 17%. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
