Park Village Eviction Risk: Moderate

11 census tracts · pop 49,383 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.9/10 · range 4.8–7.3

Park Village is a 11-tract neighborhood of Roselle, NJ, population 49,383. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.9/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 43% against 29.8% citywide, putting Park Village 13.0% over its own city.

Scores across the 11 constituent tracts range from 4.8 to 7.3. A 2.5-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 16%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.8/10.

Court records carry 1,984 eviction filings across its 10 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2018, when filings touched 45.2% of renter households. Average gross rent is $1,706, 9% above the Roselle average of $1,567.

Judgments average 0.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Against average income of $112,058, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

36% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.9 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
