Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Baychester
What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. At $2,545 a month, rents run 40% over what the rest of New York commands. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 9.6/10.
On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. It sits 1.1 points below the Bronx County average of 9.3.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 33 filings here across 8 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2016 at 3.0% of renter households. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Bronx. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
In a typical year about 1.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 92% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
