What drives eviction risk in Oakwood Shores
Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. What pushes it up most is local political climate at 8.5/10.
Against the Cook County average of 6.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.8 points. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.4/10.
The poverty rate is 18%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The filing record is not thin: 2,175 evictions over 15 years of observation. At $1,295 a month, rents run 10% under what the rest of Chicago commands.
The worst year on record was 2004, when 19.4% 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 9.6% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 90th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.8/10. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 2.8 points hotter.
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.
