West Babylon Eviction Risk: Elevated

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. On the high side, state political climate reads 7.3/10. The severe-burden share is 12%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.2/10. Food insecurity runs 9.4% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 6.9% against 15.2% nationally. Against the Suffolk County average of 6.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points.

Nationally it ranks #12,919 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. 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 1.6/10.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, 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.
