What drives eviction risk in Medford
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. At $2,211 a month, rents run 61% over what the rest of Medford commands. The voucher gap is 51.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.7/10. Against the Jackson County average of 6.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.2 points.
That is riskier than roughly 59% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 7% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.1/10. Statewide the OR average is 6.1, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.
Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
