This growth in website traffic has provided LawDistrict with an influx of new data on eviction rates and the extent to which they’ve risen due to the end of the federal eviction moratorium. While Eviction Lab has tracked this upwards trend in a very limited number of states and cities, our database spans almost all U.S. states.
By coupling this information with research from across the web, we’ve obtained the following findings:
Evictions increased by 25% due to both federal and state moratoriums expiring.
Southern states experienced higher eviction rates.
The rates of evictions served are approaching pre-pandemic levels in certain areas.
The renters which are most behind on rent face the highest eviction risk.
Statewide eviction bans had a more significant impact than federal moratoriums.
On average, renters are behind three months’ rent and owe $2,550.
