Analysis
What drives eviction risk in East Elmhurst
The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.9/10.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. Food insecurity runs 27.9% against 17.8% nationally.
Housing insecurity runs 23.1% against 14.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 150 evictions over 7 years of observation.
Filings peaked in 2016 at 8.3% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining").

In a typical year about 5.5% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #2,339 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9/10. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 2.0 points hotter.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Queens County average of 9.3 closely.
