Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Edgemere
SNAP participation runs 44.9% against 15.2% nationally. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10.
Running hot, economic stress reads 9.8/10. Set annual rent against average income of $35,529 and the ratio lands at 47%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 39%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
This is renter territory: 79% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. 61% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Queens County average of 49.8%.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 23.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. At $1,383 a month, rents run 24% under what the rest of New York commands. Court records carry 1,469 eviction filings across 7 observed years.
Filings peaked in 2006 at 35.1% of renter households. 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.
