Koreatown Eviction Risk: Moderate , Fort Lee

The voucher gap is 33.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. At $2,767 a month, rents run 33% over what the rest of Leonia commands. Cost burden runs 36% here against 46.6% across Bergen County.

On the high side, supply constraint reads 8.4/10. Disability prevalence runs 18.4% against 31.5% nationally.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10. Food insecurity runs 7.3% against 17.8% nationally.

Court records carry 45 eviction filings across 5 observed years. 8% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. It sits 0.8 points below the Bergen County average of 6.3.

The worst year on record was 2018, when 2.4% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Bergen Co. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
