Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Shirley

The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9.6/10. 26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.3/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.4/10.

Against the Suffolk County average of 6.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. On the national scale it lands near the 87th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 14% 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 4.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Average gross rent is $1,914, close to the Shirley average.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $97,424.

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