Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Ronkonkoma

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, state political climate reads 7.3/10. Against Suffolk County at 51.3%, 57% of renters here are cost-burdened.

On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 7/10. Average gross rent is $2,594, 11% above the Ronkonkoma average.

Nationally it ranks #17,132 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 16% 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.5 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
