Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Thornton

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.2/10. Against the Adams County average of 4.5, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.4 points. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.6/10.

That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 1% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 2.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the CO average is 4.9, so this tract runs 1.8 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
