Tuscano Eviction Risk: Lower

3 census tracts · pop 16,565 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.7/10 · range 3–4.5

Tuscano spans 3 census tracts of Phoenix, AZ, population 16,565. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.7/10, in the Lower tier. 54% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Phoenix rate of 31.0%.

The severe-burden share is 32%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. At $2,090 a month, rents sit 32% over what the rest of Phoenix commands.

The 3 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3 to 4.5, a 1.5-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Court records carry 174 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 21.2% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10.

Food insecurity affects 27.7% of adults, 9.9 points above the national rate. Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 211.6% of renter households.

On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 3/10. Among the 113 mapped neighborhoods of Phoenix, it ranks #61 by risk, the middle third.

Judgments average 113.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. At 20% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Fowler and Windsor Square score within a fraction of it.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.7 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
