Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Gravesend
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. Against Kings County at 49.3%, 62% of renters here are cost-burdened.
Set annual rent against average income of $56,375 and the ratio lands at 37%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. 71% 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.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Court records carry 173 eviction filings across 7 observed years.
The worst year on record was 2000, when 4.0% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Brooklyn. 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 3.7% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 97th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Social vulnerability reads 8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
