Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hawthorne

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.1/10. Against the Passaic County average of 6.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 2.2 points. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.1/10. SNAP participation runs 3.7% against 15.2% nationally.

At $1,464 a month, rents run 20% under what the rest of Hawthorne commands. Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. On the national scale it lands near the 51st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 13% 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.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $142,867, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the NJ average is 6.0, so this tract runs 1.5 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
