Little India Eviction Risk: Elevated , Chicago

The score leans hardest on local political climate at 8.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10.

Cost burden runs 38% here against 45.6% across Cook County. On the high side, regional political climate reads 7.5/10.

It sits 0.9 points above the Cook County average of 6.1. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 522 filings here across 15 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2010, when 3.6% of renter households were served. 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 3.3% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 85% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.9 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

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.
