What drives eviction risk in Sunnyside
The dominant input is local political climate at 9/10. On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.6/10. At $1,413 a month, rents run 23% under what the rest of Denver commands. The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Against the Denver County average of 6.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. The filing record is not thin: 275 evictions over 8 years of observation.
Cost burden runs 41% here against 45.4% across Denver County. The worst year on record was 2011, when 6.8% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 5.0% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #9,043 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 7.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
