Fairway Dr is a 8-tract neighborhood of Farmingdale, NY and houses 36,647 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.8/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.2/10.
The 8 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 4.7 to 6.6, a 1.9-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. 19% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. At $2,121 a month, rents sit 16% under what the rest of Farmingdale commands.
SNAP participation is 6.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 8.8% of adults, 9.0 points below the national rate. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 35% of renter households.
At 14% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.9 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.
