Severe burden reaches 31%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The dominant input is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2/10. Average gross rent is $1,503, 18% below the Denver average of $1,831.
The poverty rate is 18%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Among the 75 mapped neighborhoods of Denver, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
For a like-for-like read, Ruby Hill and Mariposa District score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 2 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $63,480. 54% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 8.2/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
