Sun Valley Eviction Risk: High , Denver

Average gross rent is $354, 81% below the Denver average. The poverty rate is 49%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Adults with no health insurance runs 33.4% against 11.3% nationally.

Against Denver County at 45.4%, 31% of renters here are cost-burdened. 91% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. On the high side, local political climate reads 9/10.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Disability prevalence runs 48.8% against 31.5% nationally. The severe-burden share is 22%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Against the Denver County average of 6.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 402 filings here across 8 tracked years.

Filings peaked in 2009 at 22.0% of renter households. 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 11.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #6,676 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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.
