MARICOPA COUNTY, AZ — New data released by the Maricopa County Justice Courts show 7,948 evictions were filed in October. This would mark the highest number of monthly eviction filings since at least the year 2000.
Year-to-date Valley eviction filings are now the second highest just behind 2005 and similar in range to 2005 through 2008, the years surrounding the Great Recession. A differentiating factor, however, is the record filings this year come on the heels of a federal eviction moratorium during the pandemic years of 2020 and 2021. The moratorium kept filings artificially low and much of the record numbers we are seeing this year is likely backlog from those years.
