Aurora Hills Eviction Risk: Moderate

7 census tracts · pop 33,874 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 4.1–6

Judgments average 9.3% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. For a like-for-like read, Willow Park and Chaddsford score within a fraction of it.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Average gross rent runs $1,842, close to the Aurora average. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $76,072.

48% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.9 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
