Hill Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 8,420 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3.3–3.3

Hill maps to a single census tract in Aurora, CO, population 8,420. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.3/10, in the Lower tier. 60% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Aurora rate of 35.0%.

29% 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 clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.4/10.

Average gross rent is $2,291, 25% above the Aurora average of $1,835. Among the 21 mapped neighborhoods of Aurora, it ranks #18 by risk, the lower third. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 28% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.3/10 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.
