Sunset Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,518 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.7/10 · range 3.7–3.7

Sunset is a one-tract neighborhood of Pueblo, CO and houses 4,518 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.7/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Pueblo baseline of 31.9%, 43% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The main counterweight is economic stress, at 2.4/10. Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.9/10.

At $995 a month, rents sit 8% under what the rest of Pueblo commands. That places it #19 of 24 neighborhoods in Pueblo.

Only 21% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Sunny Heights and Regency score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $67,663, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
