Colorado Eviction Risk: Moderate
1 census tracts · pop 7,012 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.4
Colorado maps to a single census tract in Salt Lake City, UT and houses 7,012 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 47% against 30.4% citywide, putting Colorado 16.9% over its own city.
The severe-burden share is 24%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1.7/10.
At $1,165 a month, rents sit 18% under what the rest of Salt Lake City commands. Court records for this tract carry 284 eviction filings. The poverty rate is 18%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
20.1% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 3/10. The worst year on record was 2008, when filings touched 6.2% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 3.4% in 2016, is well off that peak. That places it #1 of 26 neighborhoods in Salt Lake City. For a like-for-like read, Sunnyside East and East Central score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.4/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Against average income of $72,105, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.
28% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 5.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
