Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Jackowo
Against Cook County at 45.6%, 35% of renters here are cost-burdened. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
On the high side, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 140 evictions over 15 years of observation.
Average gross rent is $1,591, 10% above the Chicago average. Filings peaked in 2001 at 2.0% 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 1.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 80% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. 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 1.2 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
It tracks the Cook County average of 6.1 closely.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
