Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dauphin Park
Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. Cost burden runs 34% here against 45.6% across Cook County. 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. Housing insecurity runs 30.4% against 14.2% nationally.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 21.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10.
The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Court records carry 363 eviction filings across 15 observed years.
The worst year on record was 2009, when 6.0% of renter households were served. 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 5.5% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 91st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
