Flushing Chinatown Eviction Risk: High , New York

What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. Food insecurity runs 40.4% against 17.8% nationally.

Set annual rent against average income of $40,786 and the ratio lands at 44%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Running hot, economic stress reads 9.4/10.

The poverty rate is 38%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 77% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. SNAP participation runs 30.9% against 15.2% nationally.

At $1,482 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of New York commands. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 500 filings here across 7 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2005, when 3.4% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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 3.4% of renter households face a filing.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
