Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fairfax

At $2,345 a month, rents run 42% over what the rest of Colorado Springs commands. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. The voucher gap is 31.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Running hot, supply constraint reads 8.2/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. It sits 1.4 points below the El Paso County average of 4.4.

Court records carry 4 eviction filings across 2 observed years. The worst year on record was 2016, when 0.8% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 0.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 1.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CO average is 4.9, so this tract runs 1.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
