Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Little Italy

Against Rensselaer County at 38.8%, 54% of renters here are cost-burdened. Against the Rensselaer County average of 6.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.5 points. On the high side, housing-court posture reads 7.8/10.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous").

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.4 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Average gross rent is $1,122, close to the Troy average.

Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $70,720. 54% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
