Dupont Village Eviction Risk: Lower

4 census tracts · pop 13,949 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.5/10 · range 3–4

Dupont Village spans 4 census tracts of Pompton Lakes, NJ, population 13,949. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.5/10, in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 2/10.

28% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, above the Pompton Lakes rate of 20.8%. 14% 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. Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4. A 1-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.

At $1,526 a month, rents sit 17% under what the rest of Pompton Lakes commands. Court records carry 65 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. SNAP participation is 6.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 13.8% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 7.2% in 2018, is well off that peak. At 20% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Against average income of $132,801, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
