驅(qū)逐（拖欠房租的）租客禁令將于6月30日到期。這可能會(huì)導(dǎo)致全國(guó)大批租戶流離失所。
美國(guó)預(yù)算與政策優(yōu)先中心（CBPP）估計(jì)，目前有15%的成年租戶，即1100萬(wàn)美國(guó)人拖欠房租。盡管并非所有這些人都面臨可能會(huì)被驅(qū)逐的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，但隨著美國(guó)疾病控制與預(yù)防中心（CDC）頒發(fā)的禁驅(qū)令到期，他們的未來(lái)有這一可能。
尤其是對(duì)于少數(shù)族裔來(lái)說(shuō)，這場(chǎng)危機(jī)非常具有挑戰(zhàn)性。據(jù)預(yù)算與政策優(yōu)先中心4月28日至5月10日收集的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，有29%的非裔和21%的亞裔成人租客未繳納租金。相比起無(wú)孩家庭，有子女的家庭拖欠租金的比例更大。
由于成千上萬(wàn)名租客從未得到應(yīng)有的聯(lián)邦政府的救濟(jì)，他們面臨著被驅(qū)逐的威脅。因?yàn)楣芾聿簧?、房東不配合等種種因素，各州未能拿出數(shù)千萬(wàn)美元的專項(xiàng)資金以幫助租戶避免被驅(qū)逐。
有些州的情況相對(duì)更糟一些。例如，在佛羅里達(dá)州、佐治亞州和南卡羅來(lái)納州，有超過(guò)20%的租戶拖欠房租。阿拉巴馬州、阿肯色州、馬里蘭州和田納西州緊隨其后。不過(guò)，緬因州只有6%的租戶沒(méi)有按時(shí)繳納房租。而堪薩斯州、肯塔基州和猶他州的這一數(shù)據(jù)僅為7%。
一旦這些租戶被驅(qū)逐，他們將很難找到價(jià)格合適的房源。隨著經(jīng)濟(jì)在疫情后期逐漸回暖，房租價(jià)格也在飆升，2月份兩居室租價(jià)平均上漲了近1%。
盡管美國(guó)疾病控制與預(yù)防中心的禁令主要是為了保護(hù)租客，但許多房主也處于不利境地。預(yù)算與政策優(yōu)先中心估計(jì)，目前有640萬(wàn)購(gòu)房者尚未償還抵押貸款。（財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)）

On June 30, the protections that have prevented renters who are behind in their payments from being evicted will come to an end. And that could create a massive wave of homeless people across the country.
The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP) estimates there are 11 million Americans currently behind on their rent—15% of the total adult renter population. And while not all of them are facing possible eviction, the lifting of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) eviction moratorium puts them at risk.
The crisis could be especially challenging for minorities. The CBPP study, based on data collected between April 28 and May 10, finds that 29% of Black adult renters are not caught up on rent. And 21% of Asian adult renters are behind. And households with children are more likely to be delinquent than those without.
The threat of eviction comes as thousands of renters never received the federal relief due to them. States have failed to spend tens of millions of dollars earmarked to help renters avoid losing their homes because of a variety of factors, ranging from poorly administered programs to uncooperative landlords.
The situation is worse in some states than others. In Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina, for instance, more than 20% of renters are behind. Alabama, Arkansas, Maryland, and Tennessee are close behind. Only 6% of renters in Maine are not caught up on rent, though. And Kansas, Kentucky, and Utah all have just 7% who are behind.
Should they be evicted, those people will have trouble finding affordable housing. Rent prices are spiking as the economy begins to recover from the pandemic, with the average two-bedroom jumping nearly 1% in February.
While the CDC’s moratorium focuses on renters, many homeowners are also finding themselves in uncomfortable situations. The CBPP estimates 6.4 million adults are in a household not caught up on mortgage payment at present.
