Lansingburgh Eviction Risk: High

2 census tracts · pop 7,439 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 8.9/10 · range 8.8–8.9

Lansingburgh is a 2-tract neighborhood of Cohoes, NY and houses 7,439 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 8.9/10, in the High tier. Cost burden runs roughly one in two against 29.5% citywide, putting Lansingburgh 20.3% over its own city.

33% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10.

The poverty rate is 36%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Set annual rent against average household income of $50,976 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.

On the high side is economic stress at 7.7/10. SNAP participation is 25.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Running hot is housing-court posture at 7/10. At $1,383 a month, rents sit 11% over what the rest of Cohoes commands.

Social vulnerability runs high at 7.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 2 tracts score within 0.1 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

With little internal variation, 8.9/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
