Alamar Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,521 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.5/10 · range 4.5–4.5

Alamar is a one-tract neighborhood of Avondale, AZ and houses 3,521 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.5/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs about one in five against 32.7% citywide, putting Alamar 13.2% under its own city.

Set annual rent against average household income of $74,847 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 26.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.9/10. 12% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Court records for this tract carry 27 eviction filings.

Average gross rent is $2,112, 15% above the Avondale average of $1,832. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.2/10. Food insecurity affects 26.9% of adults, 9.1 points above the national rate.

The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 1.2% of renter households. That places it #2 of 8 neighborhoods in Avondale. Judgments average 3.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

One tract means one number: 4.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
