Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Whitman Park

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.4/10. Severe burden reaches 29%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

SNAP participation runs 35.5% against 15.2% nationally. 83% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. 58% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Camden County average of 48.5%. Adults with no health insurance runs 23.4% against 11.3% nationally.

The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Princeton eviction risk's Eviction Lab logged 2,595 filings here across 6 tracked years.

Running hot, local political climate reads 7/10. At $1,081 a month, rents run 12% under what the rest of Camden commands.

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