Clifton Eviction Risk: Moderate

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.1/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.2/10.

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.3/10. The severe-burden share is 15%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 1.0 points below the Passaic County average of 6.7.

SNAP participation runs 7.1% against 15.2% nationally. Nationally it ranks #21,564 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Average gross rent is $1,709, close to the Clifton average. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $87,134.

40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
