Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Belgrave Square
64% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Nassau County average of 44.5%. The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 9.5/10.
On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.5/10. It sits 1.0 points above the Nassau County average of 6.5.
SNAP participation runs 6.8% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 10.8% against 17.8% nationally. At $1,689 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of University Gardens commands.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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. That is riskier than roughly 88% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 19% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $94,886.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
