Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Medford historic districts

The score leans hardest on tenant organizing strength at 8.7/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Medford eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Jackson County average of 6.1 and in line with the Oregon statewide average of 6.0. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 0.74x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, a little under the pre-pandemic norm.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 480 eviction filings here over 14 tracked years, with about 3.5% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 3.6% of renter households in 2001.

For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
