Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Field Park

Against the Cook County average of 6.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 3.1 points. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Running cool, tenant-organizing strength reads 2.1/10.

Running hot, 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. Housing insecurity runs 4.8% against 14.2% nationally.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 15 filings here across 8 tracked years. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.3% against 11.3% nationally.

Filings peaked in 2010 at 3.6% of renter households. In a typical year about 1.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 10% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 1.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 10% of average household income of $225,650, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
