What drives eviction risk in Peterson Park (39th Ward)
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 68.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 9.6/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10.
Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income of $107,500, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. 21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against the Cook County average of 6.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points.
SNAP participation runs 5.9% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 9.3% against 17.8% nationally.
Court records carry 61 eviction filings across 13 observed years. At $2,972 a month, rents run 15% under what the rest of Lincolnwood commands.
