White Horse Village Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 9,086 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.8/10 · range 5.4–5.9

White Horse Village is a 2-tract neighborhood of Absecon, NJ, population 9,086. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.8/10, in the Moderate tier. 41% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

Cost burden runs roughly two in three against 44.0% citywide, putting White Horse Village 25.9% over its own city. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.4/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.2/10.

Court records carry 334 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7.1/10. Filing activity peaked in 2017 at 13.6% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 8.8% in 2018 against a 13.6% peak. At 27% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.5 points apart at the extremes. Average gross rent runs $1,829, close to the Absecon average.

Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $75,413.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
