Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Brighton Beach
Against Kings County at 49.3%, 68% of renters here are cost-burdened. Annualized rent equals 70% of average household income of $25,085, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. 93% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Average gross rent is $1,470, 19% below the New York average. The filing record is not thin: 326 evictions over 7 years of observation.
Against the Kings County average of 9.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points. Filings peaked in 2003 at 3.1% of renter households.
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.
