What drives eviction risk in Cambria Heights
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.3/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.6/10.
The filing record is not thin: 43 evictions over 7 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2000, when 8.8% 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 6.5% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #4,622 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 7% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
Social vulnerability reads 7.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.1 points hotter.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Queens County average of 9.3 closely. Average gross rent is $1,750, close to the New York average.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $100,625.
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.
