Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade B meant middle-class areas with mortgage access. These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lake View

It sits 3.1 points below the Cook County average of 6.1. What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.4/10.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. At $1,381 a month, rents run 25% under what the rest of Winnetka commands. SNAP participation runs 3.3% against 15.2% nationally.

Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 47 evictions over 13 years of observation. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.3% against 11.3% nationally.

Filings peaked in 2013 at 3.9% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

In a typical year about 2.4% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 4% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.5/10.

Against average income of $250,001, annual rent is just 7%.

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.
