2 census tracts · pop 5,206 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Village Harbor is a 2-tract neighborhood of Beach Haven West, NJ and houses 5,206 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Cost burden runs 63% against 22.2% citywide, putting Village Harbor 41.2% over its own city.

The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10.

Food insecurity affects 6.6% of adults, 11.2 points below the national rate. 3.4% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.9/10. At 3% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Its 2 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
