Lake Grove Eviction Risk: Elevated

At $1,330 a month, rents run 39% under what the rest of Lake Grove commands. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10.

22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.8/10.

Food insecurity runs 8.5% against 17.8% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Nationally it ranks #15,451 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 18% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 4.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $115,776, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
