Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Floral Park

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.9/10.

Cost burden runs 51% here against 44.5% across Nassau County. SNAP participation runs 5.8% against 15.2% nationally.

Running hot, state political climate reads 7.3/10. Food insecurity runs 8.8% against 17.8% nationally. At $2,048 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Floral Park commands.

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. On the national scale it lands near the 80th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 14% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Social vulnerability reads 4.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
