West Englewood Park Eviction Risk: Elevated
5 census tracts · pop 21,229 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6/10 · range 5.4–7.8
West Englewood Park takes in 5 census tracts of Bergenfield, NJ and houses 21,229 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 6/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 44% against 32.2% citywide, putting West Englewood Park 11.7% over its own city.
The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.4/10. The 5 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 5.4 to 7.8, a 2.4-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Filings are well documented here: 304 across 3 observed tracts. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.1/10. SNAP participation is 5.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 6.6% of renter households. At $1,919 a month, rents sit 10% over what the rest of Bergenfield commands.
Recent filings have not receded much: 6.3% in 2018 against a 6.6% peak. For a like-for-like read, Rugby Square and Knickerbocker Park score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $123,368, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
