Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Commack

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.6/10. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 2.3/10.

Housing insecurity runs 6.0% against 14.2% nationally. Against the Suffolk County average of 6.3, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points.

Average gross rent is $2,370, 11% below the Commack average. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

On the national scale it lands near the 73rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 11% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.7/10.

Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 2.1 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
