Highland Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Pueblo, CO and houses 5,032 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4/10, in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 46%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Cost burden runs roughly two in three against 31.9% citywide, putting Highland Park 34.2% over its own city. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 2.4/10. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.6/10.
At $950 a month, rents sit 12% under what the rest of Pueblo commands. That places it #17 of 24 neighborhoods in Pueblo.
For a like-for-like read, Skyview and Sunny Heights score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. 30% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 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.
