Sorrento Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,149 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.2/10 · range 3.2–3.2

Sorrento maps to a single census tract in Maricopa, AZ, population 5,149. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.2/10, in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 48%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Against a Maricopa baseline of 31.0%, 49% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.2/10.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.1/10.

Average gross rent is $2,118, 6% above the Maricopa average of $1,998. That places it #4 of 7 neighborhoods in Maricopa. Only 20% 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.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $86,106.

One tract means one number: 3.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
