Potter Highland Historic District maps to a single census tract in Denver, CO, population 3,860. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10.

Severe burden reaches 27%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10.

36% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Denver rate of 29.2%. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10.

Average gross rent is $2,137, 17% above the Denver average of $1,831. Among the 75 mapped neighborhoods of Denver, it ranks #72 by risk, the lower third.

One tract means one number: 5.4/10 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.
