Analysis
What drives eviction risk in New Auburn
What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. Average gross rent is $681, 53% below the Chicago average.
SNAP participation runs 45.7% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 46%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. Housing insecurity runs 32.6% against 14.2% nationally. It sits 2.0 points above the Cook County average of 6.1.
69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 577 filings here across 15 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2001 at 19.3% 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.
