A lot of people are in debt to their landlords due to non-payment of rent from when the economy shut down and the subsequent recession. Sure, they may have jobs now, but the "rising wages" due to the current "labor shortage" aren't significant enough to be generating an extra $10-20k for back rent for average-wage workers. But I'm sure there's also plenty of people scared of COVID and/or using COVID as a reason to not work or pay rent and hope the whole thing works it self out.
