Colonial Heights Eviction Risk: Elevated , Portland

The dominant input is local political climate at 9/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 210 evictions over 16 years of observation. Average gross rent is $1,885, 14% above the Portland average.

Against the Multnomah County average of 7.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points. The worst year on record was 2001, when 3.6% of renter households were served.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 1.6% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #14,906 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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