Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. 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 Park Manor

SNAP participation runs 36.9% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 36.3% against 17.8% nationally.

The dominant input is local political climate at 8.5/10. It sits 1.9 points above the Cook County average of 6.1.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.5/10. This is renter territory: 66% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Severe burden reaches 16%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10.

At $1,147 a month, rents run 20% under what the rest of Chicago commands. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,533 filings here across 15 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2001, when 12.5% 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.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
