Prescott Eviction Risk: Moderate

35% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Set annual rent against average income of $65,774 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

At $1,808 a month, rents run 30% over what the rest of Prescott commands. The clearest offset is state political climate at 2.2/10.

It sits 1.5 points above the Yavapai County average of 3.8. The poverty rate is 25%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.6/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 6.9/10. The voucher gap is 12.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the national scale it lands near the 67th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the AZ average is 3.8, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
