West Laramie Eviction Risk: Lower

24% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.3/10. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

It sits 1.0 points below the Albany County average of 4.0. Cost burden runs 51% here against 46.3% across Albany County.

The filing record is not thin: 41 evictions over 11 years of observation. At $1,046 a month, rents run 13% over what the rest of Laramie commands. The worst year on record was 2009, when 2.0% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 1.0% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $64,816.

35% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
