Analysis
What drives eviction risk in East Flatbush
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. 86% 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. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10.
Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $47,708, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. 59% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Kings County average of 49.3%.
SNAP participation runs 29.7% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 32.1% against 17.8% nationally.
Average gross rent is $1,390, 24% below the New York average. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 697 filings here across 7 tracked years.
