· range 3.3–5.4
Rancho Charleston spans 3 census tracts of Las Vegas, NV and houses 15,499 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.5/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Against a Las Vegas baseline of 34.7%, 61% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
31% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Scores across the 3 constituent tracts range from 3.3 to 5.4. A 2.1-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.
20.5% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.9/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 21.3% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Average gross rent is $1,389, 11% below the Las Vegas average of $1,563. That places it #13 of 37 neighborhoods in Las Vegas. The closest comparables inside the same city are Desert Shores and Buffalo.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.3/10, 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 $59,418.
57% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
