Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: D: Hazardous (Redlined)

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade D meant Black, immigrant, and poor neighborhoods systematically denied mortgage credit. 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 Mid-North District

At $1,934 a month, rents run 34% over what the rest of Chicago commands. The score leans hardest on local political climate at 8.5/10.

Disability prevalence runs 16.5% against 31.5% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10.

The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the high side, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 169 evictions over 15 years of observation.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The worst year on record was 2010, when 2.4% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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 1.1% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 76th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.8/10.
