6 census tracts · pop 27,661 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.6/10
· range 5.9–7.4
Heer Park spans 6 census tracts of Lindenhurst, NY, population 27,661. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6.6/10, Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 55% against 33.3% citywide, putting Heer Park 21.8% over its own city.
Severe burden reaches 34%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 8.7/10.
Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 5.9 to 7.4, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.1/10.
Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 7.2/10. Average gross rent is $2,089, 11% above the Lindenhurst average of $1,885. At 18% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $121,932.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.5 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.
