FARM
AREA
INDEX
How to Read: 78% of the housing units in the farm area block group
are owner‐occupied. This is an index of 140 compared to Maricopa
County overall. This could be an advantage to a buyer's agent as the
agent could have better opportunities in this neighborhood to
create a "brand" for themselves. In owner‐occupied homes, there
are 3.75 people per household, this is more than the county
average. Same is true for renter‐occupied homes. This block group
seems to be family oriented. 65% of households have children in the
home compared to only 30% in the county overall. This can inform
your buyer portfolios in terms of what new neighborhoods may be a
fit for these buyers, or which sellers may be interested in this
neighborhood. Being involved in schools and activites for children
may give you a leg up in this area.
How to Read: The gender split of the area is 50/50. There is a high
concentration of children in the block group ‐‐ 63% higher than the
county as a whole. The area also overindexes for 25‐49 year olds
which may lead to speculation that the majority of the children are
elementary age or younger.
This block group is likely to be made up of white individuals. There is
also a slightly higher incidence of Asian individuals as compared to
the county average.
