Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Mount Greenwood
The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.1/10. Against the Cook County average of 6.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 2.1 points.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.6/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.8/10.
The severe-burden share is 12%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 206 filings here across 15 tracked years.
At $1,168 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Oak Lawn commands. Filings peaked in 2012 at 6.0% of renter households. 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.
In a typical year about 3.8% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 42nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.6/10.
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.
