· range 8.4–9.4
Fleetwood takes in 4 census tracts of Mount Vernon, NY and houses 12,860 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 9/10, High tier. Against a Mount Vernon baseline of 32.1%, 44% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.5/10. 18% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
Running cool is supply constraint, at 2/10. At $1,941 a month, rents sit 19% over what the rest of Mount Vernon commands.
Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 8.4 to 9.4, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of Mount Vernon, it ranks #4 by risk, the middle third.
For a like-for-like read, Chester Hill Park and Vernon Park score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $96,374.
44% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
