Northside takes in 5 census tracts of Syracuse, NY, population 14,628. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 7.5/10, in the Elevated tier. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 5.7 to 9.1, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
The severe-burden share is 18%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
