Dr. Hsu and Dr. Henke Publish Research on COVID-19 Eviction Moratoria and Racial Disparities
The study found that state eviction moratoria were highly effective, reducing eviction filings by approximately 75% compared to states without protections.
Using administrative eviction data and advanced demographic analysis, the research revealed that these policies provided disproportionately greater protection to Black, Hispanic, and Asian renters compared to white renters, as well as greater protection for women than men.
