What drives eviction risk in Five Points
The dominant input is local political climate at 8.5/10. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. On the high side, regional political climate reads 7.5/10.
The severe-burden share is 11%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. At $1,668 a month, rents run 16% over what the rest of Chicago commands.
Court records carry 32 eviction filings across 12 observed years. Food insecurity runs 26.2% against 17.8% nationally.
Housing insecurity runs 21.2% against 14.2% nationally. It sits 0.7 points above the Cook County average of 6.1. The worst year on record was 2010, when 2.6% of renter households were served.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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 1.2% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 84th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
At 25% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.4/10.
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.
