Silver Bow Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,990 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.1/10 · range 4.1–4.1

Silver Bow Park maps to a single census tract in Butte, MT, population 3,990. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.1/10, Moderate tier. 41% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Butte rate of 29.0%.

Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.4/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. 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 2.4/10. Average gross rent is $1,009, 18% above the Butte average of $856.

The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. That places it #3 of 6 neighborhoods in Butte.

Only 24% 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. The closest comparables inside the same city are Uptown and Pioneer.

Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $56,754.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.1/10 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.
