Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Southgate

This is renter territory: 84% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1.7/10. Set annual rent against average income of $48,931 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Cost burden runs 58% here against 50.1% across Clackamas County. It sits 1.1 points above the Clackamas County average of 5.6. Sitting well above the midpoint, state political climate reads 7.2/10.

The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running hot, local political climate reads 7.2/10. Court records carry 732 eviction filings across 6 observed years.

Filings peaked in 2007 at 9.8% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

In a typical year about 7.0% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 83% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 9.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
