Molalla Eviction Risk: Elevated

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.3/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.3/10. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.4/10.

Court records carry 73 eviction filings across 6 observed years. The severe-burden share is 8%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Average gross rent is $1,448, 12% below the Molalla average.

It sits 0.6 points above the Clackamas County average of 5.6. The worst year on record was 2008, when 7.2% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 4.1% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #17,132 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 23% 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 5.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
