Paradise Valley Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 7,555 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.8/10 · range 3.7–3.9

Paradise Valley spans 2 census tracts of Casper, WY and houses 7,555 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.8/10, Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 22%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.8/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.8/10.

Against a Casper baseline of 28.2%, roughly one in three of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.8/10. At 15% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.2 points apart at the extremes.

Average gross rent runs $1,045, close to the Casper average.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
