Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Hawthorne
On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10.
18% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against Multnomah County at 49.7%, 42% of renters here are cost-burdened. Average gross rent is $2,008, 21% above the Portland average.
Against the Multnomah County average of 7.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 101 filings here across 15 tracked years. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.6% against 11.3% nationally.
The worst year on record was 2003, when 3.6% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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 1.9% of renter households face a filing.
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.
