Santa Rosa Springs Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 8,124 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.1/10 · range 3–3.3

Santa Rosa Springs takes in 2 census tracts of Maricopa, AZ and houses 8,124 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.1/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Against a Maricopa baseline of 31.0%, 54% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

30% 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. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.1/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.4/10.

On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.1/10. That places it #6 of 7 neighborhoods in Maricopa. Only 18% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Rancho El Dorado and Lakes at Rancho El Dorado. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Its 2 tracts score within 0.3 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

Average gross rent runs $1,925, close to the Maricopa average. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $92,127.

With little internal variation, 3.1/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
