· range 3–3.8
Bellair spans 2 census tracts of Phoenix, AZ, population 6,998. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 43% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Phoenix rate of 31.0%.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 2/10.
16% 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 195 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Average gross rent is $1,799, 14% above the Phoenix average of $1,582.
Filing activity peaked in 2001 at 26.7% of renter households. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. The most recent observed rate, 8.1% in 2005, is well off that peak.
That places it #71 of 113 neighborhoods in Phoenix. Only 13% 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.
For a like-for-like read, Camelback East and Sandalwood score within a fraction of it.
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.
