Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.6/10. Against the Clark County average of 4.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. At $1,421 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Las Vegas commands.

That is riskier than roughly 35% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
