Johnson Ranch Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 11,131 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Johnson Ranch takes in 2 census tracts of San Tan Valley, AZ and houses 11,131 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 46% against 28.2% citywide, putting Johnson Ranch 17.5% over its own city.

The severe-burden share is 31%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.3/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.6/10.

That places it #5 of 8 neighborhoods in San Tan Valley. At 18% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

For a like-for-like read, Castlegate and Pecan Creek South score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Its 2 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
