Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Buffalo Ranch

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. It sits 2.2 points above the Clark County average of 4.7.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. Set annual rent against average income of $75,185 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Cost burden runs 43% here against 50.7% across Clark County.

The voucher gap is 20.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $2,100, 20% above the Spring Valley average.

The poverty rate is 22%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.2/10. On the national scale it lands near the 84th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 7.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the NV average is 4.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

36% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
