Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Piedmont
Cost burden runs 81% here against 49.7% across Multnomah County. What pushes it up most is local political climate at 9/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10.
On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. Against the Multnomah County average of 7.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.0 points. Court records carry 410 eviction filings across 16 observed years.
The worst year on record was 2000, when 8.4% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining").
