Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Glendale
It sits 2.0 points above the Cook County average of 6.1. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.6/10.
Housing insecurity runs 29.8% against 14.2% nationally. SNAP participation runs 30.0% against 15.2% nationally.
Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. The severe-burden share is 15%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Average gross rent is $1,161, 19% below the Chicago average. The poverty rate is 19%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The filing record is not thin: 423 evictions over 15 years of observation.
The worst year on record was 2009, when 3.7% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 2.6% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #7,382 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
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.
