Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Court records carry 128 eviction filings across 5 observed years. Average gross rent is $1,782, 13% above the Phoenix average.
Against the Maricopa County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points. Filings peaked in 2004 at 16.2% of renter households.
In a typical year about 10.6% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 17% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
