New Survey Shows Impact of Crisis

A new survey shows how big of an impact the COVID-19 pandemic is having on people’s lives.

More than 47% of Oklahomans who participated in an online survey say someone in their household has lost income since March 13.

The survey from the U.S. Census Bureau also finds more than 36% missed last month’s housing payment or have little confidence in making the next month’s payment.

Nearly 9% of household adults also reported either sometimes or often they hadn’t had enough food to eat within the last seven days.
