Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cheektowaga

The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, state political climate reads 7.3/10. Against the Erie County average of 6.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points.

On the national scale it lands near the 78th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 24% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Social vulnerability reads 5.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $73,459, annual rent is just 8%. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. 42% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

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.
