Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Archer Limits

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. On the high side, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 14 evictions over 7 years of observation.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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. On the national scale it lands near the 82nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter. Model confidence here is 45%, lower than typical because some ACS inputs for this tract carry wide margins of error, so read the score as a band, not a point.

It tracks the Cook County average of 6.1 closely.

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.
