Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Ocean Acres

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.6/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.7/10. It sits 1.8 points below the Ocean County average of 5.0. At $1,659 a month, rents run 26% under what the rest of Ocean Acres commands.

Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. SNAP participation runs 4.4% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 8.0% against 17.8% nationally. Nationally it ranks #63,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 4.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $153,036, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the NJ average is 6.0, so this tract runs 2.8 points cooler.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
