Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Whitwood Court
Against Multnomah County at 49.7%, 78% of renters here are cost-burdened. What pushes it up most is local political climate at 9/10. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 36 filings here across 12 tracked years.
Average gross rent is $1,466, 11% below the Portland average. Against the Multnomah County average of 7.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points.
Filings peaked in 2007 at 14.2% 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 4.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 84% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 18% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $114,792, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
