Monmouth Heights at Marlboro Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,414 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.9/10 · range 3.9–3.9

Monmouth Heights at Marlboro maps to a single census tract in Robertsville, NJ and houses 5,414 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.9/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Against a Robertsville baseline of 25.4%, 41% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.5/10. On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.3/10.

The voucher gap is 16.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The filing record is not thin: 4 evictions logged in this tract. Food insecurity affects 6.8% of adults, 11.0 points below the national rate.

At $2,366 a month, rents sit 13% under what the rest of Robertsville commands. The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 3.0% of renter households. 5.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

Recent filings have not receded much: 4.6% in 2018 against a 3.0% peak. That places it #2 of 5 neighborhoods in Robertsville. At 8% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

For a like-for-like read, Highland Crest and Bellemont score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $204,881, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
