Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Greenpoint
95% 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 softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.
Cost burden runs 40% here against 49.3% across Kings County. Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Food insecurity runs 27.3% against 17.8% nationally.
The filing record is not thin: 1,405 evictions over 7 years of observation. Housing insecurity runs 22.0% against 14.2% nationally.
At $1,613 a month, rents run 11% under what the rest of New York commands. Filings peaked in 2001 at 11.9% of renter households. 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 9.8% of renter households face a filing.
