What drives eviction risk in Rockwood

The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1.6/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.1/10. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10. At $1,319 a month, rents run 17% under what the rest of Gresham commands. The filing record is not thin: 1,939 evictions over 16 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2006 at 14.8% of renter households. In a typical year about 10.4% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 89% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the OR average is 6.1, so this tract runs 1.7 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.
