Vernon Park Eviction Risk: High , Mount Vernon

Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.2/10.

21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Cost burden runs 40% here against 47.2% across Westchester County. It sits 0.8 points above the Westchester County average of 7.8.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. Nationally it ranks #5,153 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.7/10.

Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Average gross rent is $1,724, close to the Mount Vernon average. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $89,137.

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.
