Uptown Eviction Risk: Elevated , Hoboken

Cost burden runs roughly one in three here against 46.5% across Hudson County. The voucher gap is 52.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.5/10. Food insecurity runs 6.1% against 17.8% nationally.

At $3,501 a month, rents run 19% over what the rest of Hoboken commands. Against the Hudson County average of 7.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.9 points. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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. On the national scale it lands near the 84th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2/10.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

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.
