Shadow Rock is a 2-tract neighborhood of Scottsdale, AZ and houses 7,633 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. 45% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Scottsdale rate of 29.2%.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.5/10.
Severe burden reaches 16%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Court records carry 1,327 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2003, when filings touched 33.5% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 14.3% in 2005, is well off that peak. At $1,861 a month, rents sit 8% under what the rest of Scottsdale commands. Among the 31 mapped neighborhoods of Scottsdale, it ranks #13 by risk, the middle third.
For a like-for-like read, Buenavante and Taliesin West score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.1 points apart at the extremes.
Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $87,092.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
