Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Country Oaks
Severe burden reaches 20%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 67% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
At $1,679 a month, rents run 20% over what the rest of Budd Lake commands. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.8/10. Cost burden runs 46% here against 40.8% across Morris County.
Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 4.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
It tracks the Morris County average of 5.5 closely. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $80,893.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
