18b: The Las Vegas Arts District Eviction Risk: Moderate

47% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Las Vegas rate of 34.7%. This is a renter market: 78% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

The 5 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3 to 5.4, a 2.4-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.

The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Average gross rent is $1,222, 22% below the Las Vegas average of $1,563. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.3/10.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 21.7% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. 15.0% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. That places it #8 of 37 neighborhoods in Las Vegas.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Downtown East and Canyon Gate. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $51,835.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
