Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Pompton Plains

The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 59.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income of $103,593, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.4/10. Cost burden runs 50% here against 40.8% across Morris County. Food insecurity runs 5.2% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 3.0% against 15.2% nationally. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.4/10.

Against the Morris County average of 5.5, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points. At $3,414 a month, rents run 9% over what the rest of Pompton Plains commands. That is riskier than roughly 80% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.4/10. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.
