Measuring Evictions during the COVID-19 Crisis
This paper analyzes weekly eviction filings for 44 jurisdictions in 11 states through July 7 compared to the same period in 2019. It finds that filings have returned to pre-pandemic levels in jurisdictions that were not subject to restrictions, and that activity has surged in jurisdictions that prohibited both filings and hearings immediately after the pandemic.
