85% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Severe burden reaches 25%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. Against the Maricopa County average of 3.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.9 points.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.8/10. At $1,326 a month, rents run 24% under what the rest of Tempe commands.

Court records carry 1,229 eviction filings across 5 observed years. Filings peaked in 2002 at 12.1% of renter households.

In a typical year about 11.0% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 73% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 6.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
