South Park Hill Eviction Risk: Elevated , Denver

The dominant input is local political climate at 9/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.2/10. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. Disability prevalence runs 18.8% against 31.5% nationally.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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. That is riskier than roughly 84% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 5.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the CO average is 4.9, so this tract runs 1.9 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Denver County average of 6.7 closely. Average gross rent is $1,714, close to the Denver average.

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