Court records for this tract carry 850 eviction filings. At $1,400 a month, rents sit 14% under what the rest of Mesa commands. The worst year on record was 2004, when filings touched 24.3% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 23.7% in 2005 against a 24.3% peak. That places it #15 of 33 neighborhoods in Mesa.
Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $73,393. 49% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 3.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
