Newport Eviction Risk: Elevated , Jersey City

The voucher gap is 39.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. 92% 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.

27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 8.9/10. Disability prevalence runs 11.5% against 31.5% nationally.

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.3/10.

40% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Hudson County average of 46.5%. Against the Hudson County average of 7.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. On the national scale it lands near the 82nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 2.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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