Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Albina

At $2,642 a month, rents run 60% over what the rest of Portland commands. The dominant input is local political climate at 9/10.

The voucher gap is 32.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10.

Against the Multnomah County average of 7.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 67 filings here across 15 tracked years. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.7% against 11.3% nationally.

The worst year on record was 2003, when 3.0% 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.

Nationally it ranks #16,571 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
