Sayre Woods Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 5,451 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.4/10 · range 5.3–7.1

Sayre Woods takes in 2 census tracts of Sayreville, NJ, population 5,451. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6.4/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Sayreville baseline of 31.1%, 58% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Average gross rent is $877, 49% below the Sayreville average of $1,711. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 2/10. Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 5.3 to 7.1. A 1.8-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.

Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.8/10. Severe burden reaches 10%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.7/10. Among the 10 mapped neighborhoods of Sayreville, it ranks #3 by risk, the upper third.

Against average income of $97,010, annual rent is only 11%, a wide affordability cushion. 44% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6.4 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.
