It sits 2.5 points above the Onondaga County average of 6.6. Severe burden reaches 26%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

At $1,309 a month, rents run 26% over what the rest of Syracuse commands. The poverty rate is 26%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Cost burden runs 36% here against 43.5% across Onondaga County. The dominant input is state political climate at 7.3/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 7/10.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 7/10. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Syracuse. 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 95th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.4 points hotter.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
