Westpark Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,021 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Westpark maps to a single census tract in Buckeye, AZ and houses 3,021 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Buckeye baseline of 28.3%, roughly one in two of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.5/10. Severe burden reaches 21%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10. That places it #3 of 9 neighborhoods in Buckeye.

For a like-for-like read, Phoenix Skyline West 2 and Blue Horizons score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $2,005, close to the Buckeye average.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $91,955. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
