Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Marquam Hill
On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10.
Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Cost burden runs 60% here against 49.7% across Multnomah County. Against the Multnomah County average of 7.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 44 filings here across 14 tracked years. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.0% against 11.3% nationally. At $1,473 a month, rents run 11% under what the rest of Portland commands.
The worst year on record was 2002, when 4.9% of renter households were served. 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 1.8% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #16,571 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
