Linwood Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 5,237 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.6/10 · range 5.6–5.6

Linwood is a one-tract suburb of Oatfield, OR, population 5,237. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.6/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 39% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

Against a Oatfield baseline of 46.5%, 77% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 9.4/10.

Running cool is economic stress, at 1.9/10. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.3/10.

At $1,467 a month, rents sit 18% under what the rest of Oatfield commands. The filing record is not thin: 61 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2012 at 3.1% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 2.3% in 2013 against a 3.1% peak. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $81,346. 29% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 5.6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
