Nearly A Third Of Americans Had Unpaid Housing Bills In August

Nearly a third of Americans for the fourth consecutive month failed to pay rent or mortgage payments in full. Personal finances of millions of folks have quickly deteriorated through summer. Unpaid housing bills are mounting as the virus-induced downturn continues to unleash the worst employment crisis since the Great Depression of the 1930s.

A new survey via Apartment List, an online rental platform, found 32% of renters (and homeowners) entered August with unpaid housing bills. At least 20% of respondents owed more than $1,000. Among renters with back rent due, 49% have renegotiated lease agreements with their landlords or are doing so.

Yet retail spending went up? If your told you don't need to pay rent because you can stay for free, what pay it. If it was due to not having money retail sales would also be hit. People are not paying rent and spending the money on wants not needs.
