Silver Peaks Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,754 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.7/10 · range 3.7–3.7

Silver Peaks is a one-tract neighborhood of Brighton, CO and houses 5,754 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.7/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 64% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Brighton rate of 31.6%.

At $3,112 a month, rents sit 75% over what the rest of Brighton commands. The voucher gap is 45.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 9.5/10.

21% 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. Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.2/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.8/10.

At 5% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $138,424.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
