Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Gravesend

What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. 63% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Kings County average of 49.3%. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.1/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $58,750 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 31%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.

Court records carry 111 eviction filings across 7 observed years. It sits 0.7 points above the Kings County average of 9.2. Filings peaked in 2003 at 8.7% of renter households.

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 5.5% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
