Pacific Junction Eviction Risk: High , Chicago

roughly three in four of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Cook County average of 45.6%. The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10.

SNAP participation runs 53.8% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 51%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Set annual rent against average income of $31,629 and the ratio lands at 46%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 27.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Against the Cook County average of 6.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.0 points.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.5/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.9/10.

Average gross rent is $1,207, 16% below the Chicago average. The filing record is not thin: 1,545 evictions over 15 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2002 at 12.0% 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 8.3% of renter households face a filing.

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.
