Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Mount Greenwood
The severe-burden share is 22%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.8/10.
Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.7/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 521 filings here across 15 tracked years.
Against Cook County at 45.6%, 50% of renters here are cost-burdened. It sits 0.8 points above the Cook County average of 6.1. The worst year on record was 2013, when 5.7% 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. In a typical year about 4.0% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 84% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 8/10 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.
