Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Cheesequake

Against the Middlesex County average of 5.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. 12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. SNAP participation runs 6.3% against 15.2% nationally.
The filing record is not thin: 8 evictions over 1 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2015 at 11.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 11.1% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #13,349 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 5% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 5.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Statewide the NJ average is 6.0, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
