Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Sunset Ridge I
At $2,364 a month, rents run 49% over what the rest of Phoenix commands. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. The voucher gap is 21.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Food insecurity runs 6.6% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 4.4% against 15.2% nationally.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 22 filings here across 5 tracked years. It sits 0.7 points below the Maricopa County average of 3.7.
The worst year on record was 2002, when 6.7% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 4.8% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
At 11% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
