Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Morris Park
Against Queens County at 49.8%, 85% of renters here are cost-burdened. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10.
Food insecurity runs 41.8% against 17.8% nationally. Set annual rent against average income of $56,818 and the ratio lands at 40%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
SNAP participation runs 33.8% against 15.2% nationally. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.8/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. The filing record is not thin: 90 evictions over 7 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2016, when 6.6% of renter households were served.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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 4.4% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
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.
