Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Gateway
Cost burden runs 71% here against 49.7% across Multnomah County. The score leans hardest on local political climate at 9/10.
On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. Annualized rent equals 38% of average household income of $43,462, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. The poverty rate is 33%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
It sits 1.7 points above the Multnomah County average of 7.4. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,369, 17% below the Portland average.
The filing record is not thin: 1,409 evictions over 16 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2013, when 5.1% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Portland. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
In a typical year about 5.6% of renter households face a filing.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
