Jade District Eviction Risk: Elevated

5 census tracts · pop 22,857 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.3/10 · range 6.5–9.1

Jade District is a 5-tract neighborhood of Portland, OR, population 22,857. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 7.3/10, in the Elevated tier. 55% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Portland rate of 31.4%.

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9/10. 27% 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. Scores across the 5 constituent tracts range from 6.5 to 9.1. A 2.6-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.

Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.5/10. On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10. Court records carry 2,501 eviction filings across its 4 observed tracts.

Filing activity peaked in 2007 at 10.4% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.7% in 2016, is well off that peak.

That places it #30 of 52 neighborhoods in Portland. The closest comparables inside the same city are Mocks Bottom and Roseway.

Average gross rent runs $1,567, close to the Portland average. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $88,448.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.3 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
