Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lavergne
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.2/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.4/10. The severe-burden share is 19%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. It sits 1.1 points below the Cook County average of 6.1. Court records carry 131 eviction filings across 15 observed years.
The worst year on record was 2013, when 5.4% of renter households were served. 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 3.1% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 61% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
At 23% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.5/10.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
