West Beaverton Eviction Risk: Elevated

4 census tracts · pop 17,648 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.9/10 · range 5.8–7.9

West Beaverton is a 4-tract suburb of Beaverton, OR and houses 17,648 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 6.9/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Beaverton baseline of 29.9%, 44% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 5.8 to 7.9. A 2.1-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.

Average gross rent is $1,330, 27% below the Beaverton average of $1,826. Severe burden reaches 19%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Court records carry 117 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 7.1/10. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 4.1% of renter households.

Running cool is economic stress, at 3/10. The most recent observed rate, 1.2% in 2018, is well off that peak.

That places it #6 of 14 neighborhoods in Beaverton. For a like-for-like read, Vose and Whitford score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $87,205, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.

31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
