Woodland Oaks is a 2-tract neighborhood of Yorketown, NJ, population 9,618. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.2/10, Moderate tier. Against a Yorketown baseline of 32.7%, 63% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
At $1,459 a month, rents sit 47% under what the rest of Yorketown commands. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.2/10.
The voucher gap is 15.5%: 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 38 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.5% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 6.9% of adults, 10.9 points below the national rate.
9% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.9/10.
Filing activity peaked in 2018 at 31.3% of renter households. At 3% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
Rent takes 11% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
With little internal variation, 4.2/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
