Roseway Eviction Risk: Elevated , Portland

What pushes it up most is local political climate at 9/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. At $1,344 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of Portland commands. It sits 1.1 points below the Multnomah County average of 7.4.

The filing record is not thin: 110 evictions over 16 years of observation. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.2% against 11.3% nationally. Filings peaked in 2005 at 4.7% of renter households.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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 2.0% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 80th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 14% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Against average income of $134,583, annual rent is just 12%.

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.
