This article examines the effects of pandemic-related eviction moratoria on household spending, food insecurity, and mental stress. The authors found that eviction moratoria reduced food insecurity and mental stress (as reported in the Census Household Pulse Survey), particularly among African American households. Results were corroborated using search query data from Google.
