Denver Connection Eviction Risk: Elevated

23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Cost burden runs 57% here against 45.4% across Denver County. Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 2,146 evictions over 8 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2016 at 19.7% of renter households. In a typical year about 26.9% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #17,132 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 6.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CO average is 4.9, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

Poverty sits at 6%, 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 $1,973, close to the Denver average. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $93,363.

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.
