Knickerbocker Park Eviction Risk: Elevated , Bergenfield

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.3/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10.

SNAP participation runs 6.7% against 15.2% nationally. Princeton eviction risk's Eviction Lab logged 415 filings here across 5 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2014, when 8.9% of renter households were served.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Bergen 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. In a typical year about 8.1% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 82% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 44% of renters.

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