Central Park Village spans 2 census tracts of Phoenix, AZ and houses 12,148 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Phoenix baseline of 31.0%, 57% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Severe burden reaches 28%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.7 to 4.8, a 1.1-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.8/10. Court records carry 3,091 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.
Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.9/10. Filing activity peaked in 2004 at 39.9% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 28.1% in 2005 against a 39.9% peak. Among the 113 mapped neighborhoods of Phoenix, it ranks #34 by risk, the upper third.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Moon Valley Canyon and Paradise City. Average gross rent runs $1,531, close to the Phoenix average. Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $61,904.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
