Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dyker Heights
What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $59,417 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Against Kings County at 49.3%, 59% of renters here are cost-burdened. The poverty rate is 28%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
The filing record is not thin: 140 evictions over 7 years of observation. It sits 0.7 points above the Kings County average of 9.2. Average gross rent is $1,649, 9% below the New York average.
Filings peaked in 2002 at 6.9% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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. In a typical year about 4.8% of renter households face a filing.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
