The worst year on record was 2006, when 7.5% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Greater Kansas City.

In a typical year about 4.3% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
