East Highland Eviction Risk: Moderate , Denver

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. 70% 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 softer side, economic stress reads 1.5/10. At $2,322 a month, rents run 27% over what the rest of Denver commands. Disability prevalence runs 16.8% against 31.5% nationally.

38% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Denver County average of 45.4%. It sits 1.2 points below the Denver County average of 6.7. 13% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Court records carry 193 eviction filings across 8 observed years. The worst year on record was 2016, when 2.4% 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 2.4% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 72nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
