Orchards at Monroe is a one-tract neighborhood of Clearbrook, NJ, population 4,424. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.3/10, in the Elevated tier. Severe burden reaches 29%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

41% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly below the Clearbrook rate of 51.0%. Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 7.9/10.

Running hot is housing-court posture at 7.7/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.9% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 1 evictions logged in this tract.

Running cool is economic stress, at 2.8/10. SNAP participation is 5.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,944, 12% above the Clearbrook average of $1,739.

Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 0.3% of renter households. Only 7% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

One tract means one number: 7.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
