Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Whiteaker

What pushes it up most is local political climate at 8.5/10. 76% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

The poverty rate is 32%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Severe burden reaches 20%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10. Average gross rent is $1,057, 25% below the Eugene average. Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 8/10.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,754 filings here across 16 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2000, when 14.3% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 9.3% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 93% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.3/10.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
