Analysis
What drives eviction risk in North Gresham
The score leans hardest on eviction process difficulty at 7.5/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Gresham eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Multnomah County average of 6.9 and above the Oregon statewide average of 6.0. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.23x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, roughly back to the pre-pandemic baseline.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 588 eviction filings here over 16 tracked years, with about 7.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 12.9% of renter households in 2005.
