Belmont Heights Eviction Risk: Elevated

The dominant input is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.8/10.

The 3 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 5.4 to 6.9, a 1.5-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10. Court records carry 201 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.

The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 11.9% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 3.0% in 2016, is well off that peak.

At $1,947 a month, rents sit 6% over what the rest of Denver commands. Among the 75 mapped neighborhoods of Denver, it ranks #53 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, Denver Connection and Cole score within a fraction of it.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6.2 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
