Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Ahwatukee Foothills

Average gross rent is $2,442, 54% above the Phoenix average. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10.

The voucher gap is 25.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Food insecurity runs 5.5% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 3.2% against 15.2% nationally.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 16 filings here across 4 tracked years. It sits 0.7 points below the Maricopa County average of 3.7.

Filings peaked in 2004 at 17.4% of renter households. In a typical year about 9.6% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
