Westridge Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 4,144 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.7/10 · range 4.7–4.7

Westridge is a one-tract neighborhood of Lake Oswego, OR and houses 4,144 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.7/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 15% against 28.9% citywide, putting Westridge 14.4% under its own city.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 15%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Court records for this tract carry 20 eviction filings.

Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 7.1/10. Average gross rent is $1,873, 12% below the Lake Oswego average of $2,139. The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 6.2% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 6.7% in 2012 against a 6.2% peak. Among the 11 mapped neighborhoods of Lake Oswego, it ranks #9 by risk, the lower third.

At 5% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 10% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 4.7/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
