Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Maple Brook
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. The voucher gap is 33.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. The severe-burden share is 21%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, supply constraint reads 8.4/10.
Cost burden runs 52% here against 45.6% across Cook County. It sits 1.1 points below the Cook County average of 6.1. The filing record is not thin: 326 evictions over 15 years of observation.
Filings peaked in 2015 at 29.8% of renter households. In a typical year about 10.6% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #32,842 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 11% 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.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
