Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Kestrel Park

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.2/10. The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

At $1,723 a month, rents run 24% over what the rest of Ashland commands. The voucher gap is 18.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Against the Jackson County average of 6.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

On the high side, housing-court posture reads 7.4/10. That is riskier than roughly 86% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.6/10.

Statewide the OR average is 6.1, so this tract runs 1.1 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $70,769. 39% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
