Wolcottsville is a one-tract neighborhood of Akron, NY and houses 2,594 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6.8/10, in the Elevated tier. 57% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Akron rate of 30.0%.
Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1.2/10. 25% 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.
Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8.6/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.9/10.
Against average income of $47,500, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent runs $732, close to the Akron average. 45% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
