Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Court Park

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Model confidence here is 60%, lower than typical because some ACS inputs for this tract carry wide margins of error, so read the score as a band, not a point.
It tracks the Suffolk County average of 7.9 closely.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
