Hempstead Eviction Risk: High

32% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. SNAP participation runs 30.9% against 15.2% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 28.7% against 14.2% nationally.

52% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Nassau County average of 44.5%. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.1/10.

Average gross rent is $1,272, 22% below the Hempstead average. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the national scale it lands near the 100th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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