Roosevelt Square Eviction Risk: Elevated , Chicago

81% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. What pushes it up most is local political climate at 8.5/10.

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. Cost burden runs 53% here against 45.6% across Cook County.

Against the Cook County average of 6.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. Food insecurity runs 28.4% against 17.8% nationally.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.4/10. The filing record is not thin: 123 evictions over 15 years of observation. Housing insecurity runs 22.6% against 14.2% nationally.

At $1,295 a month, rents run 10% under what the rest of Chicago commands. The worst year on record was 2014, when 4.1% of renter households were served.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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 1.8% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 87% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
