Bull Mountain Eviction Risk: Moderate

4 census tracts · pop 19,071 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 3.3–5.9

Bull Mountain spans 4 census tracts of Tigard, OR, population 19,071. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.8/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 55% against 31.0% citywide, putting Bull Mountain 24.0% over its own city.

The severe-burden share is 26%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 3.3 to 5.9. A 2.6-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.6/10.

The filing record is not thin: 28 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 3.4% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 2.4% in 2018 against a 3.4% peak. That places it #9 of 9 neighborhoods in Tigard.

At 20% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. The closest comparables inside the same city are Derry Dell and Scholls / Summerlake. Against average income of $128,470, annual rent is only 16%, a wide affordability cushion.

Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,713, close to the Tigard average.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.8 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.
