Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Golden
Average gross rent is $2,649, 36% above the Golden average. The severe-burden share is 24%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.3/10.
The voucher gap is 23.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Against Jefferson County at 48.0%, 55% of renters here are cost-burdened. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.5/10.
That is riskier than roughly 59% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 18% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
Social vulnerability reads 1.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $177,595, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
