    I created this data visualization. Data sources and tools are in the preview image, and all datasets are linked in the related post.

    Dataset: NYC’s OpenData portal on evictions, and NYS court system dashboard on eviction actions.

    Data viz tool: Datawrapper

  2. Government has a vested interest in avoiding evictions since many could end up homeless. This way the burden is shifted to the property owner who has to deal with non-paying renters. It’s cynical, but logical.

  3. I’m in Florida and we only process a small amount of evictions each month. A person in the business told me if they actually processed them all within a 6 month span it would devastate the state economy and likely majorly impact the national economy
