What drives eviction risk in Brownsville
The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. SNAP participation runs 37.1% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 38.7% against 17.8% nationally.
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. The poverty rate is 33%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 780 filings here across 7 tracked years. It sits 0.7 points above the Kings County average of 9.2. Filings peaked in 2001 at 16.9% of renter households.
This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Brooklyn. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 14.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
