Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Damascus Heights

The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9.2/10. Severe burden reaches 27%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side, supply constraint reads 8.8/10.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.2/10. It sits 1.5 points below the Clackamas County average of 5.6.

Cost burden runs 45% here against 50.1% across Clackamas County. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 86 filings here across 6 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2009 at 22.9% of renter households.

In a typical year about 11.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #47,371 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 8% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
