Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Maplewood
Cost burden runs 34% here against 45.6% across Cook County. The score leans hardest on local political climate at 8.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10.
Disability prevalence runs 17.5% against 31.5% nationally. On the high side, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. Court records carry 145 eviction filings across 15 observed years.
The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Food insecurity runs 9.8% against 17.8% nationally.
Filings peaked in 2012 at 2.8% of renter households. 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 1.8% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 80th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 2.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.1 points hotter.
