Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Glenwood Arts District
What pushes it up most is local political climate at 8.5/10. It sits 2.0 points above the Cook County average of 6.1.
Severe burden reaches 22%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10.
SNAP participation runs 26.5% against 15.2% nationally. Running hot, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. The poverty rate is 19%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Housing insecurity runs 23.1% against 14.2% nationally. Court records carry 1,093 eviction filings across 15 observed years.
Filings peaked in 2001 at 12.0% of renter households. 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 6.4% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 91% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Social vulnerability reads 9.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
