Wild Tree Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,127 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Wild Tree is a one-tract neighborhood of Chandler, AZ and houses 3,127 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. 41% 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.

Cost burden runs 54% against 28.4% citywide, putting Wild Tree 25.1% over its own city. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10.

The filing record is not thin: 21 evictions logged in this tract. SNAP participation is 5.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. 4.1% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Filing activity peaked in 2004 at 14.1% of renter households. At $2,060 a month, rents sit 8% over what the rest of Chandler commands. The most recent observed rate, 2.0% in 2005, is well off that peak.

That places it #10 of 34 neighborhoods in Chandler. Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
