Pie Allen Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 1,324 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.2/10 · range 5.2–5.2

Pie Allen is a one-tract neighborhood of Tucson, AZ, population 1,324. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.2/10, in the Moderate tier. 44% 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.

Cost burden runs 58% against 32.8% citywide, putting Pie Allen 25.0% over its own city. The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10.

The poverty rate is 50%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. 81% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.

On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2/10. Average gross rent is $960, 16% below the Tucson average of $1,145.

That places it #2 of 32 neighborhoods in Tucson.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
