Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Elmont
Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.6/10. The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.6/10. It sits 1.0 points above the Nassau County average of 6.5.
Average gross rent is $1,956, 11% below the Elmont average. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Queens. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
On the national scale it lands near the 88th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 14% 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 7.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Rent takes 30% or more of income for 48% of renters. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $107,571.
