Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Southwest
What moves this score most is eviction process difficulty at 7.5/10. 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 Gresham eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below 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.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 101 eviction filings here over 15 tracked years, with about 7.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 16.5% of renter households in 2008.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 21st percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.
For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
