Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Mesa Patios
Against Maricopa County at 46.0%, 60% of renters here are cost-burdened. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 82% 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.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. At $1,177 a month, rents run 27% under what the rest of Mesa commands.
The filing record is not thin: 915 evictions over 5 years of observation. It sits 0.9 points above the Maricopa County average of 3.7. Filings peaked in 2005 at 26.9% of renter households.
In a typical year about 18.6% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 53% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
