Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 3 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. About 2 in 3 the children here are growing up below the poverty line, and more than a third of adults say they are socially isolated. That is two thousand neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
