Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Morris Park
Cost burden runs 89% here against 49.8% across Queens County. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. Food insecurity runs 32.8% against 17.8% nationally.
Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. Court records carry 50 eviction filings across 7 observed years. Average gross rent is $1,627, 11% below the New York average.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 14.6% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The worst year on record was 2004, when 7.6% of renter households were served. 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 4.9% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 100th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
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.
