Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Southside
28% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against the Broome County average of 6.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.6 points.
Running hot, housing-court posture reads 8/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.1/10. Against Broome County at 45.5%, roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. On the national scale it lands near the 92nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.1/10. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $843, close to the Binghamton average.
Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $52,603. 42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
