North Deering Eviction Risk: Moderate , Portland

The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 25%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.4/10.

At $1,198 a month, rents run 24% under what the rest of Portland commands. Food insecurity runs 7.0% against 17.8% nationally.

Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 2.8/10. That is riskier than roughly 72% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 18% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.2/10. Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $115,644, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the ME average is 4.5, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Cumberland County average of 5.0 closely.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
