Emery Park spans 8 census tracts of Tucson, AZ and houses 40,254 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, Moderate tier. Against a Tucson baseline of 32.8%, 44% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. 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.
Food insecurity affects 34.4% of adults, 16.6 points above the national rate. The poverty rate is 24%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.2/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 24.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Scores across the 8 constituent tracts range from 4 to 5.2. A 1.2-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Court records carry 12,057 eviction filings across its 8 observed tracts. Average gross rent is $988, 14% below the Tucson average of $1,145.
The worst year on record was 2017, when filings touched 129.1% of renter households. That places it #15 of 32 neighborhoods in Tucson. Judgments average 13.3% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
