Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dumont
What moves this score most is rent-control risk at 7.3/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

HOLC surveyors mapped this tract in the 1930s with a dominant grade of C ("Declining"), above the redlined D tier. The grading still shaped decades of lending and development in the surrounding area.
Princeton eviction risk's Eviction Lab logged 121 eviction filings here over 5 tracked years, with about 5.7% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 5.8% of renter households in 2015.
