Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Hawthorne

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 652 filings here across 16 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2001, when 8.0% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Portland. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
In a typical year about 3.7% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #6,330 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.9/10.
