Riviera Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 9,559 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.6/10 · range 4.2–4.8

Riviera spans 3 census tracts of Bullhead City, AZ, population 9,559. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.6/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Against a Bullhead City baseline of 32.2%, 56% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.9/10. 20% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 27%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.2/10. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10.

Disability prevalence reaches 43.7% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. SNAP participation is 25.3% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

At $975 a month, rents sit 10% under what the rest of Bullhead City commands. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

The 3 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.6 points apart at the extremes. Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $38,449.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
