Wykagyl Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 4,676 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.6/10 · range 5.6–5.6

Wykagyl is a one-tract neighborhood of Eastchester, NY and houses 4,676 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.6/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Against a Eastchester baseline of 34.5%, 13% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Average gross rent is $3,481, 58% above the Eastchester average of $2,210. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.2/10.

The voucher gap is 25.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.6/10. The severe-burden share is 13%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Disability prevalence reaches 17.3% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 7.5/10. 3.2% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Eastchester, it ranks #2 by risk, the middle third. Only 5% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Arthur Manor and Maplewood score within a fraction of it.

Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
