Cole is a one-tract neighborhood of Denver, CO and houses 4,503 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 6.2/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Denver baseline of 29.2%, 41% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
What pushes the score up most is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10. 23% 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.
On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10. Court records for this tract carry 313 eviction filings. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7.5/10.
Filing activity peaked in 2012 at 6.2% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 3.2% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 75 mapped neighborhoods of Denver, it ranks #53 by risk, the lower third.
Average gross rent runs $1,898, close to the Denver average. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $111,087. 46% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 6.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
