Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cutler Park

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.1/10. Housing insecurity runs 21.5% against 14.2% nationally.

The worst year on record was 2018, when 7.9% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 7.1% of renter households face a filing.
