Genesee-Jefferson Eviction Risk: High , Rochester

Food insecurity runs 41.1% against 17.8% nationally. Against the Monroe County average of 7.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.3 points. Severe burden reaches 27%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

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. The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1.2/10.

The poverty rate is 27%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. At $879 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of Rochester commands.

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 7.5/10. 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.

Nationally it ranks #2,657 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 9.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter.
