Crestline Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 7,416 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.8/10 · range 7.3–8.4

Crestline takes in 2 census tracts of Jamestown, NY, population 7,416. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 7.8/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 53% against 30.7% citywide, putting Crestline 22.3% over its own city.

The severe-burden share is 32%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10. The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Running hot is housing-court posture at 7.6/10. Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 7.3 to 8.4. A 1.1-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. SNAP participation is 24.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

That places it #2 of 4 neighborhoods in Jamestown. For a like-for-like read, Lakeview Avenue Historical Homes and Downtown Jamestown score within a fraction of it. Average gross rent runs $767, close to the Jamestown average.

Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $45,446. 41% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.8 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
