Fox Hills Eviction Risk: High

2 census tracts · pop 5,736 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9.3/10 · range 8.6–9.9

Fox Hills takes in 2 census tracts of New York, NY and houses 5,736 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 9.3/10, High tier. Annualized rent equals 108% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. Severe burden reaches 30%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Average gross rent is $1,162, 36% below the New York average of $1,821. Food insecurity affects 40.7% of adults, 22.9 points above the national rate.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 32.0% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 24%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. 38% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, higher than the New York rate of 31.3%.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 8.6 to 9.9, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7.1/10.

Among the 289 mapped neighborhoods of New York, it ranks #128 by risk, the middle third. 61% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.3 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
