Colonial Lakes Eviction Risk: Moderate

The 3 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3 to 5.6, a 2.6-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. The severe-burden share is 25%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.5/10. Court records carry 1,243 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 24.0% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 10.0% in 2018, is well off that peak. Average gross rent is $1,724, 6% above the Mercerville average of $1,621. That places it #2 of 4 neighborhoods in Mercerville.

For a like-for-like read, Mercerville and Hamilton Square score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $101,280. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
