Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dyker Heights
Cost burden runs about three-quarters here against 49.3% across Kings County. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. Annualized rent equals 47% of average household income of $50,265, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8/10. Food insecurity runs 27.2% against 17.8% nationally.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 57 filings here across 7 tracked years. It sits 0.7 points above the Kings County average of 9.2.
The worst year on record was 2001, when 2.2% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 1.7% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
