Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Buffalo Ranch
100% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Clark County average of 50.7%. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10.
The voucher gap is 19.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $2,085, 20% above the Spring Valley average.
Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.2/10. Food insecurity runs 9.5% against 17.8% nationally.
On the national scale it lands near the 59th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 5% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.5/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Clark County average of 4.7 closely.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
