Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Massapequa

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 2/10.

14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.2/10.

It sits 1.0 points below the Nassau County average of 6.5. Food insecurity runs 9.1% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 6.7% against 15.2% nationally.

At $2,231 a month, rents run 15% under what the rest of Massapequa commands. That is riskier than roughly 72% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 11% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 1.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $155,787, annual rent is just 17%. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 2.2 points cooler.

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.
