Skokie Junction Eviction Risk: Lower , Lake Forest

At $2,625 a month, rents run 45% over what the rest of Lake Forest commands. The voucher gap is 49.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Running cool, economic stress reads 2.1/10. 50% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Lake County average of 42.6%.

SNAP participation runs 4.6% against 15.2% nationally. It sits 1.1 points below the Lake County average of 4.4.

Housing insecurity runs 5.9% against 14.2% nationally. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 3/10.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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. On the national scale it lands near the 27th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 16% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
