Nepera Park is a 3-tract neighborhood of Yonkers, NY and houses 12,709 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 7.2/10, in the Elevated tier. Scores across the 3 constituent tracts range from 5.3 to 8.6. A 3.3-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.
At $2,417 a month, rents sit 35% over what the rest of Yonkers commands. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10.
27% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Cost burden runs 41% against 32.7% citywide, putting Nepera Park 8.3% over its own city.
Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 8.1/10. SNAP participation is 6.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 8.9% of adults, 8.9 points below the national rate. That places it #17 of 17 neighborhoods in Yonkers. Only 14% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.2 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
