Suntrails Eviction Risk: Lower , Mesa

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.4/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 159 filings here across 5 tracked years.

It sits 0.7 points below the Maricopa County average of 3.7. At $1,810 a month, rents run 12% over what the rest of Mesa commands.

Filings peaked in 2001 at 15.0% of renter households. In a typical year about 10.8% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 49% of renters.

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.
