  • Estimating eviction prevalence across the United States

    Open AccessAshley Gromis, Ian Fellows et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the National…2022

    Significance Several negative effects of forced displacement have been well documented, yet we lack reliable measurement of eviction risk in the national perspective. This prevents accurate estimations of the scope and geography of the problem as well as evaluations of policies to reduce housing loss. We construct a nationwide database of eviction filings in the United States. Doing so reveals that 2.7 million households, on average, are threaten…

  • Eviction from public housing in the United States

    Open AccessAshley Gromis, James R Hendrickson et al.ARTICLECities2022Cited by: 2References: 28

    Neither academic researchers nor the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development have studied evictions from public housing in national perspective. Combining federal registers of public housing authorities (PHAs) with individual-level records from >25 million eviction filings issued between 2006 and 2016, this is the first national-level study to estimate the prevalence and dynamics of eviction in public housing units. We find that the aver…

  • Inaccuracies in Eviction Records

    Open AccessAdam Porton, Ashley Gromis et al.ARTICLEHousing Policy Debate2021

    Administrative court records are increasingly used to study the prevalence of eviction. Yet inaccuracies in court records bias estimates of eviction and distort tenants’ true rental histories. This is the first study to systematically assess the prevalence of inaccuracies across jurisdictions. Drawing on over 3.6 million administrative eviction court records from 12 states, we find that, on average, 22% of eviction records contain ambiguous infor…

  • Spatial Concentration and Spillover

    Kyle Nelson, Ashley Gromis et al.ARTICLEHousing Policy Debate2021

    The lack of sufficient affordable housing in Los Angeles, California burdens many renter households with the threat of an eviction. Research has identified individual- and neighborhood-level sociodemographic correlates of eviction, but the uneven distribution of sociodemographic characteristics and housing conditions across neighborhoods likely produces broader patterns of spatial clustering in eviction prevalence across local areas. We use spati…

  • The Neighborhood Context of Eviction in Southern California

    Open AccessMichael Lens, Kyle Nelson et al.ARTICLECity and Community2020Cited by: 2References: 13

    In the United States, soaring rent burdens and a dearth of affordable housing leave millions of renters at risk of eviction. The eviction epidemic is particularly pronounced in California where advocates estimate that approximately 500,000 renters are evicted annually. Research has looked at individual–level determinants of evictions, but we know much less about the spatial dynamics of eviction and associations across neighborhoods. This is large…

  • The Emergence of Spatial Clustering in Medical Vaccine Exemptions Following California Senate Bill 277, 2015–2018

    Ashley Gromis, Kayuet Liu et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2020Cited by: 1References: 26

    Objectives. To understand how the elimination of nonmedical vaccine exemptions through California Senate Bill 277 (SB277) may have resulted in increased spatial clustering of medical exemptions. Methods. We used spatial scan statistics and negative binomial regression models to examine spatial clustering in medical vaccine exemptions in California kindergartens from 2015 to 2018. Results. Spatial clustering of medical exemptions across schools em…
