Cliffside Park Eviction Risk: Elevated

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10. Against the Bergen County average of 6.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.0 points.

SNAP participation runs 7.2% against 15.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $2,077, 13% above the Cliffside Park average.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. Nationally it ranks #11,153 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the NJ average is 6.0, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
