North Pelham Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 10,982 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.7/10 · range 5.8–9.5

North Pelham is a 2-tract neighborhood of New Rochelle, NY and houses 10,982 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 7.7/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs about half against 30.5% citywide, putting North Pelham 21.0% over its own city.

Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 5.8 to 9.5. A 3.7-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 7.8/10.

On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.3/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.5/10.

That places it #8 of 13 neighborhoods in New Rochelle. For a like-for-like read, Rochelle Heights and Chester Heights score within a fraction of it. Average gross rent runs $2,004, close to the New Rochelle average.

Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $109,397. 48% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 3.7 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.
