Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Allendale

The severe-burden share is 21%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The voucher gap is 27.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.1/10.

SNAP participation runs 2.6% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 5.4% against 17.8% nationally.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10. Against the Bergen County average of 6.3, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.3 points.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. That is riskier than roughly 61% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 2.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the NJ average is 6.0, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

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.
