Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 2 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. Nearly a quarter of adults here carry depression, and about 1 in 15 the workforce is looking for work and not finding it. That is 2,200 neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
