A four part recent series in The Oregonian on affordable housing pointed out that gentrification has driven low-income people, minorities, and those who have trouble finding housing to the East County (east of 82nd).

On edit: I posted this because the OP has specifically asked for low-crime area. We all know that low-income and minority renters do not represent crime, but are often forced to live in that scene because of the oppressive housing policies of property owners in more Republican neighborhoods.
