Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Gateway

Against the Camden County average of 5.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 3.1 points. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.4/10. Housing insecurity runs 31.3% against 14.2% nationally.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.1/10. Cost burden runs 56% here against 48.5% across Camden County. The poverty rate is 22%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 19.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Court records carry 592 eviction filings across 6 observed years. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7/10.

The worst year on record was 2014, when 32.5% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Camden. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 27.7% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 95% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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