The Vistas Eviction Risk: Elevated , Denver

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. The severe-burden share is 18%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Adults with no health insurance runs 24.6% against 11.3% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.1/10. Average gross rent is $1,512, 17% below the Denver average.

Cost burden runs 51% here against 45.4% across Denver County. The filing record is not thin: 1,097 evictions over 8 years of observation.

The worst year on record was 2009, when 16.0% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 13.7% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 84% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CO average is 4.9, so this tract runs 1.9 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

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.
