Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Saint Albans
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
SNAP participation runs 28.4% against 15.2% nationally. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10.
The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Cost burden runs 45% here against 49.8% across Queens County.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 170 filings here across 7 tracked years. Average gross rent is $1,572, 14% below the New York average. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 16.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
Filings peaked in 2000 at 12.8% of renter households. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Queens. 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 9.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
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.
