Average annual eviction filing rates among ages 18–24 year olds, by student status, 2007–2018

Source: Rates are estimated using eviction data linked to respondents in the American Community Survey and adjusted for incomplete linkage rates and underreporting of eviction data from housing courts. See “A comprehensive demographic profile of the US evicted population” for more details on the method we used to estimate rates in this new analysis of students.
