Middlewood Eviction Risk: Moderate , Old Bridge

At $2,464 a month, rents run 69% over what the rest of Old Bridge commands. What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10.

Against the Middlesex County average of 5.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. SNAP participation runs 6.0% against 15.2% nationally.

Court records carry 9 eviction filings across 1 observed years. The voucher gap is 13.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Filings peaked in 2015 at 10.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 10.2% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 55% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 9% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
