Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lakewood

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.5/10.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.6/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 22 filings here across 1 tracked years. Average gross rent is $1,630, 10% below the Lakewood average.

The worst year on record was 2010, when 8.0% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 8.0% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #32,842 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.3/10. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
