Trails II Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 12,197 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.4/10 · range 3–4

Trails II spans 2 census tracts of Scottsdale, AZ, population 12,197. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.4/10, in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 16%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2/10. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.

Court records carry 922 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Average gross rent is $1,709, 15% below the Scottsdale average of $2,013.

Filing activity peaked in 2003 at 15.5% of renter households. 32% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, slightly above the Scottsdale rate of 29.2%. Recent filings have not receded much: 10.6% in 2005 against a 15.5% peak.

That places it #3 of 31 neighborhoods in Scottsdale. The closest comparables inside the same city are Shiloh Canyon and Downtown Scottsdale.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
