Suntree Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 10,463 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Suntree spans 2 census tracts of Gilbert, AZ and houses 10,463 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Against a Gilbert baseline of 28.9%, 41% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,645, 22% below the Gilbert average of $2,110.

Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10. 14% 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 carry 673 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2003 at 23.7% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 7.0% in 2005, is well off that peak. That places it #3 of 16 neighborhoods in Gilbert.

For a like-for-like read, Allen Ranch and Arboreta 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. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.

Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $97,167. 35% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
