Filings are well documented here: 34 across 2 observed tracts. SNAP participation is 4.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Severe burden reaches 10%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
3.8% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The voucher gap is 12.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 13.0% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 4.6% in 2016, is well off that peak.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
