Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Eagle Hill

The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1.7/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 8/10. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Average gross rent is $993, 18% below the Albany average. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10.

Food insecurity runs 9.7% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 8.0% against 15.2% nationally. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Albany. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

Nationally it ranks #4,393 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.1/10. Against average income of $71,250, annual rent is just 17%.

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.
