Centerra is a one-tract neighborhood of Goodyear, AZ, population 8,518. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Goodyear baseline of 37.1%, 63% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.6/10. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.3/10. The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1.7/10. At $1,749 a month, rents sit 11% under what the rest of Goodyear commands.
That places it #2 of 7 neighborhoods in Goodyear. For a like-for-like read, Estrella Vista and Canyon Trails score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $86,741. 41% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
