Highlands Ranch Eviction Risk: Moderate

35% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well below the Douglas County average of 47.3%. 15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.3/10. Average gross rent is $2,106, 17% below the Highlands Ranch average.

The filing record is not thin: 66 evictions over 2 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2017, when 6.6% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 6.3% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 58th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

It tracks the Douglas County average of 4.3 closely. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $110,054.

48% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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