Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Ridge
Cost burden runs 41% here against 51.3% across Suffolk County. Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.3/10. On the high side, state political climate reads 7.3/10.
Food insecurity runs 9.9% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 7.7% against 15.2% nationally.
That is riskier than roughly 82% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 10% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4/10. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Suffolk County average of 6.3 closely.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
