Sun Groves Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 10,448 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Sun Groves takes in 2 census tracts of Chandler, AZ and houses 10,448 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. At $2,787 a month, rents sit 47% over what the rest of Chandler commands.

The voucher gap is 42.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.1/10.

19% 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. On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10. The filing record is not thin: 47 evictions logged in this tract.

Cost burden runs about a quarter against 28.4% citywide, putting Sun Groves 4.6% under its own city. SNAP participation is 5.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 8.5% of adults, 9.3 points below the national rate.

Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 109.3% of renter households. That places it #10 of 34 neighborhoods in Chandler.

Judgments average 119.6% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
