Eviction filings
Court-record eviction history
Court-validated eviction filings collected from county clerks and consolidated by the Eviction Lab at Princeton University. Filing rate is filings per 100 renter households.1
Set annual rent against average income of $64,013 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.4/10.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The voucher gap is 18.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 22 filings here across 7 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2011, when 2.0% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 1.4% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 33rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Only 21% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 3.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
58% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.
