Alhambra Eviction Risk: Moderate , Phoenix

91% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. Annualized rent equals 36% of average household income of $42,109, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Against Maricopa County at 46.0%, 57% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.4/10. The poverty rate is 27%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Food insecurity runs 30.9% against 17.8% nationally. It sits 1.3 points above the Maricopa County average of 3.7.

Average gross rent is $1,247, 21% below the Phoenix average. The filing record is not thin: 2,194 evictions over 5 years of observation.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 14.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filings peaked in 2003 at 159.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 125.2% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 61% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
