· range 3.4–5
Indian Springs takes in 6 census tracts of Phoenix, AZ and houses 28,550 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.4/10, in the Moderate tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
The 6 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.4 to 5, a 1.6-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Food insecurity affects 33.6% of adults, 15.8 points above the national rate. The severe-burden share is 17%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.2/10. Cost burden runs 36% against 31.0% citywide, putting Indian Springs 5.4% over its own city.
Court records carry 2,269 eviction filings across its 6 observed tracts. Average gross rent is $1,396, 12% below the Phoenix average of $1,582. Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 36.2% of renter households.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. SNAP participation is 23.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. That places it #32 of 113 neighborhoods in Phoenix.
Judgments average 10.3% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. For a like-for-like read, Wild Flower and Santa Maria score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $66,019.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.6 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
