Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Gladstone Park
Average gross rent is $2,074, 44% above the Chicago average. What pushes it up most is local political climate at 8.5/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.6/10.
On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. The voucher gap is 17.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 80 filings here across 15 tracked years. It sits 0.8 points below the Cook County average of 6.1.
Filings peaked in 2012 at 13.3% of renter households. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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. In a typical year about 4.3% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 67th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 6% 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.
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.
