Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cooper Point

The score leans hardest on economic stress at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Camden eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Camden County average of 6.8 and above the New Jersey statewide average of 6.6. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

Princeton eviction risk's Eviction Lab logged 351 eviction filings here over 6 tracked years, with about 20.3% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 23.0% of renter households in 2016.

In CDC survey modeling, about 40.5% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 26.6% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.

For a landlord underwriting a deal here, treat timelines and legal costs as the real risk: Camden eviction risk sits in territory where contested cases drag and tenant defenses are well organized, so airtight notices and screening matter more than usual.
