Long Beach Eviction Risk: High

The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 1.6 points above the Nassau County average of 6.5.

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.6/10. Against Nassau County at 44.5%, roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened.

Average gross rent is $2,029, 19% below the Long Beach average. Sitting well above the midpoint, state political climate reads 7.3/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.0% against 11.3% nationally.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Nationally it ranks #7,382 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 2.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $92,854. 45% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
