Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Arleta
Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. The severe-burden share is 19%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Court records carry 388 eviction filings across 16 observed years. Cost burden runs 46% here against 49.7% across Multnomah County. At $1,853 a month, rents run 12% over what the rest of Portland commands.
Filings peaked in 2001 at 7.8% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining").

In a typical year about 4.4% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #10,727 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
