Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Greenpoint
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. This is renter territory: 82% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
At $2,385 a month, rents run 31% over what the rest of New York commands. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8/10.
13% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against the Kings County average of 9.2, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 159 filings here across 7 tracked years.
SNAP participation runs 7.6% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 10.6% against 17.8% nationally.
Filings peaked in 2000 at 1.9% of renter households. 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 1.4% of renter households face a filing.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
