Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lakeview East
On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10. This is renter territory: 69% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Disability prevalence runs 15.9% against 31.5% nationally. At $1,773 a month, rents run 23% over what the rest of Chicago commands.
Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. Cost burden runs about half here against 45.6% across Cook County. The severe-burden share is 11%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Court records carry 678 eviction filings across 15 observed years. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
The worst year on record was 2004, 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.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
