Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Roseway

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. Average gross rent is $2,179, 32% above the Portland average.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. It sits 1.1 points below the Multnomah County average of 7.4.

Court records carry 293 eviction filings across 16 observed years. Filings peaked in 2006 at 6.8% of renter households. 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 3.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #16,571 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.5/10. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 51% of renters. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $106,500.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
