HOLC grade: A: Best

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Nepera Park

At $2,545 a month, rents run 43% over what the rest of Yonkers commands. The score leans hardest on eviction-process difficulty at 9/10.

Cost burden runs 60% here against 47.2% across Westchester County. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

SNAP participation runs 6.2% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 9.2% against 17.8% nationally. This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Lower Westchester Co. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

Nationally it ranks #6,676 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 13% 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 2.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
