Southeast Bend Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 10,803 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.4/10 · range 4.7–6.7

Southeast Bend is a 2-tract neighborhood of Bend, OR, population 10,803. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6.4/10, Elevated tier. Severe burden reaches 24%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 4.7 to 6.7, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Cost burden runs 36% against 29.3% citywide, putting Southeast Bend 6.6% over its own city.

The voucher gap is 17.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 7/10.

Running cool is economic stress, at 3/10. Average gross rent is $1,711, 9% below the Bend average of $1,883. That places it #5 of 11 neighborhoods in Bend.

Only 25% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Mountain View and Orchard District score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $93,047.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6.4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
