Midtown UNLV Eviction Risk: Elevated , Paradise

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10. 27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10.

Annualized rent equals 37% of average household income of $35,594, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. 75% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.3/10. SNAP participation runs 29.8% against 15.2% nationally.

The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. At $1,100 a month, rents run 20% under what the rest of Paradise commands. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 16.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Nationally it ranks #9,927 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the NV average is 4.5, so this tract runs 3.1 points hotter.
