Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Steeplechase

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10.

71% 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. 15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.1/10.

Court records carry 1,646 eviction filings across 5 observed years. At $1,411 a month, rents run 11% under what the rest of Phoenix commands. Filings peaked in 2003 at 39.9% of renter households.

In a typical year about 37.5% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 46th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
