Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Midwood
Severe burden reaches 26%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. This is renter territory: 71% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.7/10. The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Cost burden runs 43% here against 49.3% across Kings County. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 245 filings here across 7 tracked years.
Against the Kings County average of 9.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points. The worst year on record was 2003, when 5.6% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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 4.4% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
