eviction epidemic

The eviction epidemic refers to the rising trend of tenants being forcibly removed from their homes due to non-payment of rent or lease violations. This issue has been exacerbated by factors such as economic instability, job loss, and insufficient affordable housing. Many renters, particularly in low-income communities, face legal challenges and lack resources to fight evictions. This situation not only disrupts individuals and families but also has broader social implications, including increased homelessness and strain on public services. Addressing the eviction epidemic requires comprehensive policy changes and support systems to protect vulnerable tenants.
