Arcadia Terrace Eviction Risk: Elevated , Chicago

Against Cook County at 45.6%, 68% of renters here are cost-burdened. What pushes it up most is local political climate at 8.5/10.

It sits 1.8 points above the Cook County average of 6.1. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. Running hot, regional political climate reads 7.5/10.

The poverty rate is 18%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. The filing record is not thin: 732 evictions over 15 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2013, when 2.9% 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 2.6% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 90th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 2.8 points hotter.

Of its three components the housing type and transport 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.
