Housing (In)Stability: What the Data Show

Millions of Americans face housing instability and are at risk of eviction and subsequent homelessness. Our next eviction-related briefing will examine the pandemic’s effect on housing stability and renters’ vulnerabilities to being evicted and losing their housing. On Wednesday, June 9, 2021, from 4:00-4:45 pm ET, attend a research snapshot presentation by Kathryn Reynolds, Senior Program Manager at the Urban Institute, who will offer an overview of data about renter stability (including historical trends, demographic data, and how renters are faring during the pandemic). This presentation will provide insights from Census Pulse Survey and other data and will touch on rent relief available through state and local governments. Register today.

Data like this is important to help courts and court staff understand the scope of housing instability and looming eviction filings, as well as the widening racial inequities in housing. State and local courts across the country have begun planning for what happens when their local and/or the CDC moratorium expire. Over the next few months, NCSC will continue to offer programming and resources to assist state courts with ways to address the upcoming eviction cases.
