Okay. I can anecdotally tell you that user jandrewrogers does not know of any cases in Seattle where tenants with high incomes that could easily pay just don't. Our anecdotes cancel each other out.

There would likely be at least one (1) report of such a wild claim due to how wild it is. We wouldn't need anecdotes!

Anecdotes aren't usually admissible as evidence, is the thing

Sure, but the comment upthread could provide evidence that "it is still common enough that it has become a real problem".
