Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Powellhurst
The heaviest input here is 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 above the Multnomah County average of 6.9 and above the Oregon statewide average of 6.0. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.08x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, roughly back to the pre-pandemic baseline.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,860 eviction filings here over 16 tracked years, with about 12.8% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 17.6% of renter households in 2002.
For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
