General Electric Realty Plot Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 3,208 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.7/10 · range 7.7–7.7

General Electric Realty Plot is a one-tract neighborhood of Schenectady, NY, population 3,208. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 7.7/10, in the Elevated tier. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10.

Against a Schenectady baseline of 35.8%, 45% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.6/10. 19% 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.

On the high side is housing-court posture at 8.2/10. Among the 10 mapped neighborhoods of Schenectady, it ranks #8 by risk, the lower third. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,078, close to the Schenectady average. 51% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
