Crosswinds Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 6,717 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6/10 · range 6–6

Crosswinds is a one-tract neighborhood of Barnegat, NJ and houses 6,717 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6/10, Elevated tier. 27% 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.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 7.9/10. Court records for this tract carry 541 eviction filings.

Filing activity peaked in 2018 at 18.2% of renter households. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 36% of renter households.

At $1,886 a month, rents sit 7% over what the rest of Barnegat commands. Judgments average 0.5% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 20% 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.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $99,161.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
