Analysis
What drives eviction risk in West Amityville
At $2,621 a month, rents run 76% over what the rest of East Massapequa commands. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10.
54% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Nassau County average of 44.5%. On the softer side, housing-court posture reads 2.3/10. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.4/10.
Against the Nassau County average of 6.5, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.2% against 11.3% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 7% 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 1.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 2.3 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
