Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Rotterdam
The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.6/10. Against the Schenectady County average of 6.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.4 points. Severe burden reaches 14%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
On the high side, state political climate reads 7.3/10. Food insecurity runs 8.9% against 17.8% nationally.
SNAP participation runs 7.3% against 15.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,382, 8% above the Rotterdam average. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
Nationally it ranks #29,336 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Against average income of $92,273, annual rent is just 18%. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 2.5 points cooler.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
