Homestead Park Eviction Risk: High

1 census tracts · pop 4,411 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 8.1/10 · range 8.1–8.1

Homestead Park maps to a single census tract in New Rochelle, NY and houses 4,411 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 8.1/10, in the High tier. 46% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the New Rochelle rate of 30.5%.

The severe-burden share is 28%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9/10. 77% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.3/10. Average gross rent is $2,260, 18% above the New Rochelle average of $1,917.

Disability prevalence reaches 18.7% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 7/10. Among the 13 mapped neighborhoods of New Rochelle, it ranks #5 by risk, the middle third.

For a like-for-like read, Rochelle Heights and Chester Heights score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $96,955.

One tract means one number: 8.1/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
