What drives eviction risk in Bergen Square
around two-thirds of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Camden County average of 48.5%. Set annual rent against average income of $15,509 and the ratio lands at 69%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. It sits 3.1 points above the Camden County average of 5.7.
The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 52%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Adults with no health insurance runs 33.5% against 11.3% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 9.4/10.
Disability prevalence runs 49.2% against 31.5% nationally. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10.
76% 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. At $892 a month, rents run 27% under what the rest of Camden commands.
Court records carry 513 eviction filings across 6 observed years.
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.
