April 1: The landlord is knocking on the door, and many Americans are struggling to make the rent since the coronavirus outbreak turned the economy upside down. Here, find some of their stories:

At 21 years old, Jade Brooks pulls in her family’s only full-time salary, working at a hospital switchboard.

The first unemployment check was $275 for a week. Larson said she was humiliated but applied for food stamps.Larson, 42, moved from a high-rise downtown apartment to a house in east Nashville four months ago. Rent was cheaper. She planned to pay off debt and start saving. Instead, she called credit-card companies and said she couldn’t pay the minimum.

Before being laid off, she made drinks and chatted with people from around the world for 20 years as a bartender at the Palmer House Hilton Hotel in the heart of Chicago’s downtown Loop. She appreciates her landlord’s kindness this month. But she knows he needs her rent money to pay his bills. Blaine credits his thrifty nature to his family. And that’s whom he worries about most these days. His mother and sister are nurses in Illinois, not far from hard-hit Chicago.- Anita Snow, PhoenixShe was going to college and was a part-time cafe cashier. She couldn’t wait for the Special Olympics in March, to run and compete in long jump and shot put.

Still and his wife — who works in packaging for a marijuana dispenser in Spokane, Washington — should be able to make April’s rent as they wait to see what he’ll get in unemployment and from the federal government. An acquaintance is letting Harrison use a basement as a makeshift gym. It has dumbbells, a bench and a punching bag left by a previous tenant. Harrison wears disposable gloves and keeps his distance. A few clients keep coming, but not as many as before.

Dixon’s landlord had gone to court to evict the family before the coronavirus. Now she worries not making April’s payment will strengthen that case.
