Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Westmont

It sits 0.9 points below the Camden County average of 5.7. The filing record is not thin: 205 evictions over 6 years of observation. Cost burden runs 44% here against 48.5% across Camden County.

The worst year on record was 2018, when 23.2% of renter households were served.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
