#Eviction are far above historical average in
#WashingtonState. King, Spokane, and Clark saw the highest 12-month count in recorded history. Increase follows lifting pandemic protections in July 2023 (e.g.,
EPRAP & the #Eviction Resolution Pilot Program. https://t.co/0n9CiXZiBE

One of the most disturbing things we've seen in a long time. Harvey IL city police just boarded up seniors and others INSIDE THEIR HOMES. Apparently they were being #evicted because the building was unsafe. #eviction https://t.co/4EyIl5C2tB

[Eviction Research Network @EvictionNet]

Citizens took down boards to free tenants but were quickly boarded back up. Apparently the building was not kept up by the landlord and already unsafe and these folks had no where to go.

#California #evictions are much higher in larger counties than they were before the pandemic. We'll have a state profile using these data up soon. https://t.co/ymQO46sD5N

[Eviction Research Network @EvictionNet]

Since the end of the state moratoria, rates have mostly been above 2019 counts. "We're facing the eviction cliff we tried to prevent during the pandemic."

[Eviction Research Network @EvictionNet]

In fact, 'mom and pop' landlords often utilize management practices similar to properties with much larger rental portfolios.

[Eviction Research Network @EvictionNet]

New research in Seattle shows "no evidence that tenant protection laws drove 'mom-and-pop' landlords out of the rental market" a common argument against tenant protections https://t.co/14eoNmXnEm

[Eviction Research Network @EvictionNet]

@universalruth @EvictedInOregon The data @EvictedInOregon has been able to collect and provide is primarily from judicial department courts but are working gathering justice and municipal court records, which those counties use. We hope to have those soon!

[Eviction Research Network @EvictionNet]

New #eviction numbers for #Oregon show that the state is evicting more households than they ever have in their history. Collab w/ @EvictedInOregon See the report https://t.co/UpEVfcYHeU

Indiana had one of the highest eviction rates in the country both before and during the pandemic, according to data released by the Eviction Research Network. https://t.co/ksOAxadmeM via @sad_radio_lad

[Kristen Eskow @KristenEskow]

Data compiled by the Eviction Research Network shows despite the national eviction moratorium, Indiana didn’t see as much of a decline in evictions compared to other states: https://t.co/r4mGVfRECi @CBS4Indy @FOX59

@Portland_State During the #pandemic, #Portland had high #eviction rates with two census tracts having a 1 in 9 filing rate. Communities surrounding #Salem, #Eugene, and #Medford #Oregon also had above average filing rates.
