Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Spivak

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 102 filings here across 1 tracked years. Average gross rent is $1,533, 15% below the Lakewood average. Running hot, local political climate reads 7/10.

Filings peaked in 2010 at 8.0% of renter households. In a typical year about 8.0% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #14,906 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
