The Canyons spans 2 census tracts of Las Vegas, NV, population 8,026. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Las Vegas baseline of 34.7%, 46% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
25% 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. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.
Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.3/10. Average gross rent is $1,881, 20% above the Las Vegas average of $1,563.
Among the 37 mapped neighborhoods of Las Vegas, it ranks #25 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, Lone Mountain and Peccole Ranch score within a fraction of it. Its 2 tracts score within 0.5 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $104,965. 32% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 3.3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
