Encanto Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 2,522 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Encanto maps to a single census tract in Phoenix, AZ and houses 2,522 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

Severe burden reaches 25%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.1/10.

29% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.2/10.

Court records for this tract carry 92 eviction filings. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. SNAP participation is 4.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

The worst year on record was 2004, when filings touched 11.3% of renter households. Average gross rent is $1,402, 11% below the Phoenix average of $1,582.

The most recent observed rate, 6.8% in 2005, is well off that peak. Among the 113 mapped neighborhoods of Phoenix, it ranks #84 by risk, the lower third. At 23% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
