Polish Village Eviction Risk: Elevated

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 two streets over. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10.

The severe-burden share is 14%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 7 to 8.1, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 7.5/10.

The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Court records carry 711 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.

The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 4.7% of renter households. 18.0% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. The most recent observed rate, 2.3% in 2015, is well off that peak.

Among the 187 mapped neighborhoods of Chicago, it ranks #81 by risk, the middle third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Pacific Junction and Corwith.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
