Stony Island Heights Eviction Risk: Elevated
2 census tracts · pop 6,144 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.5/10 · range 6.1–8.1
Stony Island Heights takes in 2 census tracts of Chicago, IL, population 6,144. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6.5/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 45% against 29.3% citywide, putting Stony Island Heights 15.4% over its own city.
The severe-burden share is 21%. 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 6.1 to 8.1, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.2/10.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.4/10. Court records carry 448 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.
SNAP participation is 24.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2012, when filings touched 8.6% of renter households.
Average gross rent is $1,317, 9% below the Chicago average of $1,440. The most recent observed rate, 4.2% in 2015, is well off that peak. Among the 187 mapped neighborhoods of Chicago, it ranks #110 by risk, the middle third.
At 22% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Avalon Trails and Sheridan Park score within a fraction of it.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6.5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
