Salt Springs spans 2 census tracts of Syracuse, NY and houses 4,960 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 9/10, placing it in the High tier. 56% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Syracuse rate of 32.9%.
29% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 2.6/10.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 23.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 20%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 7/10. Food insecurity affects 28.0% of adults, 10.2 points above the national rate.
Among the 26 mapped neighborhoods of Syracuse, it ranks #14 by risk, the middle third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Near Northeast and Westside. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.4/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.2 points apart at the extremes. Average gross rent runs $999, close to the Syracuse average.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
