Analysis
What drives eviction risk in South Ozone Park
The severe-burden share is 30%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Against Queens County at 49.8%, 40% of renters here are cost-burdened.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 8/10.
At $2,201 a month, rents run 21% over what the rest of New York commands. Food insecurity runs 27.7% against 17.8% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 82 evictions over 7 years of observation.
Housing insecurity runs 21.2% against 14.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2016, when 9.8% of renter households were served.
This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Queens. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 4.2% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 96% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 6.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
