Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cheyenne

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, tenant-organizing strength reads 1/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.3/10. Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

The poverty rate is 19%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. At $1,018 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Cheyenne commands.

On the national scale it lands near the 42nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 16% 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.

Social vulnerability reads 2.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $84,033, annual rent is just 15%. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Laramie County average of 3.6 closely.

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.
