Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Ozone Park
The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. 65% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Queens County average of 49.8%.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. Food insecurity runs 30.0% against 17.8% nationally.
Housing insecurity runs 24.0% against 14.2% nationally. Court records carry 70 eviction filings across 7 observed years. Filings peaked in 2016 at 5.4% of renter households.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 2.7% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 100th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
