East Aurora is a 5-tract neighborhood of Boulder, CO, population 14,295. Scored across those inputs it reaches 8.7/10, placing it in the High tier. Severe burden reaches 56%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
roughly three in four of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Boulder rate of 44.1%. Set annual rent against average household income of $48,513 and the ratio lands at 45%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
The poverty rate is 41%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. 76% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8/10.
Court records carry 20 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2002, when filings touched 0.9% of renter households.
Average gross rent is $1,831, 9% below the Boulder average of $2,018. That places it #3 of 13 neighborhoods in Boulder. Judgments average 0.3% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
With little internal variation, 8.7/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
