Severe burden reaches 27%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 2.1/10. At $1,244 a month, rents sit 25% under what the rest of Colorado Springs commands.

Court records carry 317 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 3/10. The worst year on record was 2017, when filings touched 9.3% of renter households.

Among the 17 mapped neighborhoods of Colorado Springs, it ranks #4 by risk, the upper third. Judgments average 4.0% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

Its 4 tracts score within 0.2 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $56,279.

With little internal variation, 5.6/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
