Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Greenpoint
Average gross rent is $3,501, 92% above the New York average. The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. This is renter territory: 87% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Disability prevalence runs 12.1% against 31.5% nationally. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.1/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.
The voucher gap is 25.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. SNAP participation runs 3.8% against 15.2% nationally.
The severe-burden share is 12%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Against the Kings County average of 9.2, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.
The filing record is not thin: 251 evictions over 7 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2006, when 3.3% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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 2.8% of renter households face a filing.
