Longhaven West Eviction Risk: Moderate

5 census tracts · pop 23,688 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 4.4–5

Longhaven West spans 5 census tracts of Phoenix, AZ and houses 23,688 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.8/10, in the Moderate tier. roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Phoenix rate of 31.0%.

30% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 25.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. SNAP participation is 27.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.7/10. Filings are well documented here: 3,585 across 3 observed tracts.

Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 57.5% of renter households. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10.

That places it #19 of 113 neighborhoods in Phoenix. Judgments average 16.9% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

With little internal variation, 4.8/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
