Spring Tree Ridge is a one-tract neighborhood of Great Falls, MT, population 2,638. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 42%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Cost burden runs 42% against 28.2% citywide, putting Spring Tree Ridge 13.7% over its own city. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.1% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 7.5% of adults, 10.3 points below the national rate. That places it #6 of 8 neighborhoods in Great Falls.
At 3% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. The closest comparables inside the same city are Wadsworth Park and Northside. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
