Average gross rent is $2,130, 20% above the Wanaque average of $1,778. 3.3% 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.
Food insecurity affects 7.4% of adults, 10.4 points below the national rate. At 8% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
