Skytop Eviction Risk: High , Syracuse

100% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Onondaga County average of 43.5%. Set annual rent against average income of $22,083 and the ratio lands at 61%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10.

The poverty rate is 62%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 2.5 points above the Onondaga County average of 6.6.

77% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. SNAP participation runs 32.0% against 15.2% nationally.

Sitting well above the midpoint, state political climate reads 7.3/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 7/10.

Housing insecurity runs 21.5% against 14.2% nationally. At $1,128 a month, rents run 9% over what the rest of Syracuse commands.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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.

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