Century West Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 5,773 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5/10 · range 5–5

Century West is a one-tract neighborhood of Bend, OR and houses 5,773 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, Moderate tier. 41% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Bend rate of 29.3%.

Severe burden reaches 25%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

The voucher gap is 15.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7/10.

Among the 11 mapped neighborhoods of Bend, it ranks #10 by risk, the lower third. Against average income of $119,801, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,922, close to the Bend average.

31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
