Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Greenpoint
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. This is renter territory: 87% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.3/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Disability prevalence runs 17.1% against 31.5% nationally. It sits 1.0 points below the Kings County average of 9.2.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 387 filings here across 7 tracked years. Against Kings County at 49.3%, 45% of renters here are cost-burdened.
SNAP participation runs 7.3% against 15.2% nationally. Filings peaked in 2000 at 5.5% of renter households.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
