Valley View Eviction Risk: Lower

4 census tracts · pop 19,999 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3–4.3

Valley View takes in 4 census tracts of Phoenix, AZ and houses 19,999 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Phoenix baseline of 31.0%, 43% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 21% 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. Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4.3. A 1.3-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.6/10. Court records carry 615 eviction filings across its 4 observed tracts.

Average gross rent is $1,781, 13% above the Phoenix average of $1,582. The worst year on record was 2003, when filings touched 24.3% of renter households. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10.

The most recent observed rate, 7.6% in 2005, is well off that peak. That places it #64 of 113 neighborhoods in Phoenix.

At 21% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. The closest comparables inside the same city are Cactus and Tuscano.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.6 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
