Analysis

What drives eviction risk in East Side

29% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10.

Running hot, regional political climate reads 7.5/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 104 filings here across 15 tracked years. Food insecurity runs 10.4% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 8.2% against 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2015, when 2.2% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.0% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 5.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $110,000, annual rent is just 16%.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
