Spanish Colony Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 12,602 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.5/10 · range 5.5–5.5

Spanish Colony spans 3 census tracts of Greeley, CO and houses 12,602 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.5/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Greeley baseline of 35.7%, 55% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Severe burden reaches 32%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The poverty rate is 28%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 3/10.

At $1,189 a month, rents sit 14% under what the rest of Greeley commands. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 3 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $48,684. 45% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
