Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hillsboro

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 8.3/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.9/10. 15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2.1/10. At $1,129 a month, rents run 16% over what the rest of Hillsboro commands.

Court records carry 255 eviction filings across 14 observed years. Food insecurity runs 10.4% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 7.9% against 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2004, when 15.7% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 9.4% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 10% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Social vulnerability reads 4.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $88,229, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

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.
