Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Holbrook
At $2,380 a month, rents run 79% over what the rest of Homewood commands. The voucher gap is 35.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 2.3 points below the Cook County average of 6.1.
What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 8.5/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.8/10. 14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Running cool, economic stress reads 2.4/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 119 filings here across 15 tracked years.
Filings peaked in 2012 at 6.6% of renter households. In a typical year about 11.1% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #52,479 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
At 11% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
