Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade B meant middle-class areas with mortgage access. These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Rosemoor

Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.3/10. Food insecurity runs 33.8% against 17.8% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.5/10.

Housing insecurity runs 26.4% against 14.2% nationally. 39% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Cook County average of 45.6%. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 385 filings here across 15 tracked years.

It sits 0.8 points above the Cook County average of 6.1. Filings peaked in 2001 at 9.4% of renter households.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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 6.3% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #13,349 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.7/10.

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.
