Lawrence Park spans 4 census tracts of Yonkers, NY and houses 14,923 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 8.6/10, in the High tier. Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 6 to 9.9. A 3.9-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is eviction-process difficulty at 8.6/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 2/10.
Severe burden reaches 16%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Against a Yonkers baseline of 32.7%, 37% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.3/10. At $2,036 a month, rents sit 14% over what the rest of Yonkers commands.
Food insecurity affects 9.3% of adults, 8.5 points below the national rate. Among the 17 mapped neighborhoods of Yonkers, it ranks #16 by risk, the lower third. At 21% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
For a like-for-like read, Dunwoodie and Grey Oaks score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $118,294.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 3.9 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.
