Analysis
What drives eviction risk in City Park West
On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.1/10.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 95 filings here across 8 tracked years. 41% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Denver County average of 45.4%.
At $1,663 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Denver commands. The worst year on record was 2010, when 4.7% 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 3.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 80% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3/10. Statewide the CO average is 4.9, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
