Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

The worst year on record was 2007, when 31.0% of renter households were served.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
