Reading some of the most recent US #Census "pulse" survey info.
9.1% of adults are either not current on the rent or mortgage payment, or have slight or no confidence in making their next payment on time.
Of those adults that are living in households that are not current on their rent or mortgage, 35.3% report eviction or foreclosure in the next two months is somewhat or very likely.
35.6% of adults live in households where it has been somewhat or very difficult to pay usual household expenses during the #coronavirus pandemic.
83.6% of adults in households with post-secondary educational plans had those plans cancelled or changed significantly this Fall.

Something they don't specifically mention: What about people who were making their rent payments in full and on time, but the landlord wasn't keeping up with the mortgage? I'd like to see them asking that question in this weekly survey.
