Gladstone Park Eviction Risk: Elevated , Chicago

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.6/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. At $1,162 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of Chicago commands.

Severe burden reaches 12%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The filing record is not thin: 107 evictions over 15 years of observation.

It sits 0.6 points above the Cook County average of 6.1. Filings peaked in 2011 at 2.1% 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 1.3% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #14,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.6 points hotter.

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