Analysis
What drives eviction risk in East Hyde Park
The score leans hardest on local political climate at 8.5/10. It sits 2.0 points above the Cook County average of 6.1. The poverty rate is 29%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
66% 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. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10.
52% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Cook County average of 45.6%. On the high side, regional political climate reads 7.5/10.
Court records carry 949 eviction filings across 15 observed years. The worst year on record was 2002, when 11.6% of renter households were served.
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 7.3% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 91st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
