Rosedale Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 9,365 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.8/10 · range 5.7–5.9

Rosedale is a 2-tract neighborhood of Denver, CO and houses 9,365 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.8/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Denver baseline of 29.2%, 54% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

25% 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. The strongest single driver of the headline number is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10.

Filings are well documented here: 208 across 2 observed tracts. On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.5/10. The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 2.0% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 1.0% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 75 mapped neighborhoods of Denver, it ranks #65 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, Highlands Square and Platt Park score within a fraction of it.

Against average income of $128,922, annual rent is only 16%, a wide affordability cushion. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.2 points apart at the extremes.

Average gross rent runs $1,723, close to the Denver average.

With little internal variation, 5.8/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
