Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Mississippi
Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. The severe-burden share is 20%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. Against the Multnomah County average of 7.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points.
The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. At $1,390 a month, rents run 16% under what the rest of Portland commands.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 577 filings here across 16 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2004 at 10.3% of renter households.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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 5.6% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #5,153 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.6/10. Statewide the OR average is 6.1, so this tract runs 2.5 points hotter.
