The Hill Eviction Risk: High , Boulder

Set annual rent against average income of $33,307 and the ratio lands at 54%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Against the Boulder County average of 5.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 3.0 points.

68% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Boulder County average of 52.5%. The dominant input is local political climate at 9.5/10. 96% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

The poverty rate is 35%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side, economic stress reads 8.8/10.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,498, 26% below the Boulder average. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 5 filings here across 1 tracked years.
