· range 4.2–4.2
Castle Oaks maps to a single census tract in Castle Rock, CO, population 7,629. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.2/10, Moderate tier. 56% 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.
Cost burden runs 61% against 35.6% citywide, putting Castle Oaks 25.0% over its own city. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.1/10.
On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8.2/10. The filing record is not thin: 30 evictions logged in this tract.
The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 9.7% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.5% in 2017, is well off that peak. That places it #4 of 4 neighborhoods in Castle Rock.
At 12% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Silver Heights and Happy Canyon score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $2,004, close to the Castle Rock average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
