In a typical year about 11.0% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 5.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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.
