Rincon Heights maps to a single census tract in Tucson, AZ, population 7,715. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.2/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. This is a renter market: 90% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.3/10. Cost burden runs 39% against 32.8% citywide, putting Rincon Heights 6.2% over its own city.
Running hot is economic stress at 7.4/10. Average gross rent is $996, 13% below the Tucson average of $1,145. That places it #2 of 32 neighborhoods in Tucson.
Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $38,594.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
