Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Putnam Lake

At $2,517 a month, rents run 44% over what the rest of Putnam Lake commands. 65% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Putnam County average of 49.2%.

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.9/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, state political climate reads 7.3/10.

That is riskier than roughly 80% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 9% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 4.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.4 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Putnam County average of 5.9 closely.

Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $107,604.

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