Gloucester City Eviction Risk: Moderate

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.4/10. 56% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Camden County average of 48.5%. Running cool, economic stress reads 2.9/10.

It sits 0.9 points below the Camden County average of 5.7. The filing record is not thin: 255 evictions over 6 years of observation. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 3.1/10.

Filings peaked in 2016 at 28.7% of renter households. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Camden. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 20.4% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 58th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 22% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the NJ average is 6.0, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler. Average gross rent is $1,461, close to the Gloucester City average.

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