Milton is a one-tract neighborhood of Milton-Freewater, OR and houses 3,984 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 7.7/10, Elevated tier. Against a Milton-Freewater baseline of 28.0%, 46% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.2/10. The poverty rate is 21%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
The severe-burden share is 9%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. At $823 a month, rents sit 6% under what the rest of Milton-Freewater commands. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $44,538. 63% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
