East Quincy Highlands Eviction Risk: Lower

3 census tracts · pop 18,314 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.4/10 · range 3.2–3.7

East Quincy Highlands is a 3-tract neighborhood of Aurora, CO, population 18,314. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.4/10, in the Lower tier. At $2,827 a month, rents sit 54% over what the rest of Aurora commands.

The voucher gap is 32.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 8.2/10. Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Cost burden runs 41% against 35.0% citywide, putting East Quincy Highlands 5.6% over its own city.

The filing record is not thin: 53 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2011 at 15.4% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 6.5% in 2017, is well off that peak. Among the 21 mapped neighborhoods of Aurora, it ranks #17 by risk, the lower third.

At 12% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Hill and Country Village score within a fraction of it.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Its 3 tracts score within 0.5 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

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.
