Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Ozone Park
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. Annualized rent equals 41% of average household income of $67,444, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
At $2,318 a month, rents run 27% over what the rest of New York commands. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8/10.
Food insecurity runs 28.6% against 17.8% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 82 evictions over 7 years of observation.
Housing insecurity runs 22.0% against 14.2% nationally. Filings peaked in 2016 at 6.9% of renter households.
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 3.2% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
