Culdesac Tempe Eviction Risk: Moderate

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 8.9/10. It sits 1.9 points above the Maricopa County average of 3.7.

21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.2/10. At $1,408 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of Tempe commands.

The filing record is not thin: 1,993 evictions over 5 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2001 at 21.8% of renter households.

In a typical year about 20.0% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #22,681 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 7.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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.
