It sits 2.1 points above the Westchester County average of 7.8. Set annual rent against average income of $51,739 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Housing insecurity runs 24.1% against 14.2% nationally.

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 #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 9.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
