Analysis

What drives eviction risk in West Amityville

On the softer side, housing-court posture reads 2.3/10. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.4/10.

The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Nationally it ranks #14,906 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 18% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 5.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

44% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Nassau County average of 6.5 closely.

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.
