Athmar Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Denver, CO, population 3,742. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.1/10, in the Elevated tier. The severe-burden share is 43%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Cost burden runs 55% against 29.2% citywide, putting Athmar Park 25.5% over its own city. The strongest single driver of the headline number is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10.
Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10. The filing record is not thin: 133 evictions logged in this tract.
Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7.5/10. Filing activity peaked in 2009 at 10.5% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 1.3% in 2016, is well off that peak. At $1,715 a month, rents sit 6% under what the rest of Denver commands.
Among the 75 mapped neighborhoods of Denver, it ranks #26 by risk, the middle third. At 26% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. The closest comparables inside the same city are Upper Downtown and Wellshire.
Social vulnerability runs high at 7.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $86,316.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.1/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
