Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Terwilliger

The score leans hardest on tenant organizing strength at $1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Portland eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Multnomah County average of 6.9 and above the Oregon statewide average of 6.0. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.86x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, above pre-pandemic levels.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 74 eviction filings here over 16 tracked years, with about 1.6% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 4.1% of renter households in 2008.

For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
