East Greenbush Eviction Risk: Moderate

Cost burden runs 53% here against 38.8% across Rensselaer County. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

It sits 1.6 points below the Rensselaer County average of 6.6. SNAP participation runs 5.4% against 15.2% nationally. Running hot, state political climate reads 7.3/10.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Nationally it ranks #32,842 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 3% of average household income of $143,750, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 2.7 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
