Park Phoenix Eviction Risk: Moderate

6 census tracts · pop 28,724 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.1/10 · range 3–5

Park Phoenix is a 6-tract neighborhood of Phoenix, AZ, population 28,724. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.1/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 49% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Phoenix rate of 31.0%.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 5, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. 24.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 22.7% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Filings are well documented here: 280 across 3 observed tracts.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. At $1,778 a month, rents sit 12% over what the rest of Phoenix commands. Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 205.5% of renter households.

Running cool is housing-court posture, at 3/10. That places it #46 of 113 neighborhoods in Phoenix.

Judgments average 16.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 27% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
