Cambria Heights Eviction Risk: High , New York

71% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Queens County average of 49.8%. Average gross rent is $2,632, 45% above the New York average.

What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.5/10.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. Against the Queens County average of 9.3, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.

Court records carry 41 eviction filings across 7 observed years. Filings peaked in 2000 at 12.3% of renter households.

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 6.0% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 92nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 11% 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 4.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
