What drives eviction risk in Greektown
Average gross rent is $2,592, 80% above the Chicago average. The voucher gap is 47.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 9.7/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.3/10.
Disability prevalence runs 14.1% against 31.5% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.5/10.
Food insecurity runs 7.2% against 17.8% nationally. 11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 611 filings here across 15 tracked years. Against the Cook County average of 6.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points.
The worst year on record was 2012, when 5.7% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
