Seaside Eviction Risk: High

3 census tracts · pop 15,036 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9/10 · range 8.2–9.9

Seaside takes in 3 census tracts of New York, NY and houses 15,036 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 9/10, in the High tier. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10.

21% 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. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.8/10.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 8.2 to 9.9, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Filings are well documented here: 642 across 3 observed tracts. Cost burden runs 36% against 31.3% citywide, putting Seaside 4.7% over its own city.

On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.1/10. The worst year on record was 2004, when filings touched 7.4% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 3.7% in 2016, is well off that peak.

That places it #169 of 289 neighborhoods in New York. For a like-for-like read, Oakwood Heights Station and Throggs Neck score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $105,835, annual rent is only 20%, a wide affordability cushion.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,742, close to the New York average. 37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.7 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
