Tarrytown is a 3-tract neighborhood of Gary, IN and houses 11,604 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.3/10.
On the high side is housing-court posture at 8.7/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 8.2/10. SNAP participation is 29.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 24.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. 37% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.
That places it #1 of 15 neighborhoods in Gary. For a like-for-like read, Horace Mann and Waverly Park score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 3 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Average gross rent runs $1,006, close to the Gary average.
With little internal variation, 6/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
