Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Merrickwood
Average gross rent is $3,217, 26% above the North Bellmore average. The voucher gap is 24.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
On the high side, supply constraint reads 7.4/10. SNAP participation runs 5.1% against 15.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, state political climate reads 7.3/10.
Adults with no health insurance runs 4.1% against 11.3% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 77% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 5% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.2/10. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.8 points cooler.
Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
