Mount Greenwood Eviction Risk: Moderate , Chicago

On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10. Against Cook County at 45.6%, 36% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. Food insecurity runs 8.0% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 6.3% against 15.2% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 110 filings here across 15 tracked years. It sits 0.8 points below the Cook County average of 6.1.

The worst year on record was 2011, when 6.8% 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 4.4% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 67% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $120,643, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
