Curtis Park maps to a single census tract in Denver, CO, population 6,018. The Eviction Risk Score is 8.2/10, in the High tier. 56% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Denver rate of 29.2%.
92% 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. Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.
Severe burden reaches 22%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10. The poverty rate is 21%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Running hot is housing-court posture at 7.5/10. At $1,998 a month, rents sit 9% over what the rest of Denver commands. That places it #1 of 75 neighborhoods in Denver.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Ruby Hill and Mariposa District. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.3/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
One tract means one number: 8.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
