Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Medford

The dominant input is supply constraint at 10/10. Average gross rent is $2,374, 73% above the Medford average.

The voucher gap is 63.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.7/10. Severe burden reaches 20%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Against the Jackson County average of 6.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.2 points. Nationally it ranks #34,278 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.6/10.

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.

Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $107,869.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
