The voucher gap is 12.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Filing activity peaked in 2004 at 5.7% of renter households. That places it #7 of 8 neighborhoods in New Braunfels.

Judgments average 5.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 12% of units are renter-occupied.
