The Village at Chapel Hill is a 2-tract neighborhood of Fairview, NJ, population 8,738. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.7/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. At $2,409 a month, rents sit 42% over what the rest of Fairview commands.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 4.5 to 6.9, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. The severe-burden share is 18%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The voucher gap is 18.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.2/10. Court records carry 156 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.3% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 6.3% of adults, 11.5 points below the national rate.
The worst year on record was 2018, when filings touched 26.0% of renter households. Judgments average 0.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
Only 19% 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. Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.4 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
