Hawthorne Eviction Risk: Elevated , Portland

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. 15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

It sits 1.1 points below the Multnomah County average of 7.4. The filing record is not thin: 105 evictions over 16 years of observation.

Adults with no health insurance runs 4.3% against 11.3% nationally. Filings peaked in 2003 at 3.0% of renter households. 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 #16,571 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 3.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $119,955, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 48% of renters. Average gross rent is $1,746, close to the Portland average.

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.
