The worst year on record was 2004, when filings touched 12.7% of renter households. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 3/10. SNAP participation is 7.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 9.7% of adults, 8.1 points below the national rate. The most recent observed rate, 7.1% in 2005, is well off that peak. Among the 113 mapped neighborhoods of Phoenix, it ranks #71 by risk, the middle third.
For a like-for-like read, Sandalwood and Northgate score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $108,750.
One tract means one number: 3.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
