Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sunset Ridge I

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.8/10. Food insecurity runs 8.2% against 17.8% nationally.

Court records carry 346 eviction filings across 5 observed years. Housing insecurity runs 6.5% against 14.2% nationally. Against the Maricopa County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points.

The worst year on record was 2003, when 15.3% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 11.5% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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.
