What drives eviction risk in Chinatown
The dominant input is local political climate at 9/10. 26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10.
74% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. Against the Multnomah County average of 7.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points.
On the national scale it lands near the 84th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 2.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $120,396, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
Average gross rent is $1,780, close to the Portland average.
