It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.8/10, in the Moderate tier. 40% 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.
67% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Aurora rate of 35.0%. At $2,141 a month, rents sit 17% over what the rest of Aurora commands.
Court records for this tract carry 135 eviction filings. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 12.6% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 7.7% in 2017 against a 12.6% peak. Among the 21 mapped neighborhoods of Aurora, it ranks #14 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, Sterling Hills and Seven Hills score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $102,404. 29% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
