Very interesting....

Wow. Up to 50% in some aresa. Staggering.
Interesting how the concentration seems proportional to the areas with a higher concentration of elderly residents and immigrant populations. (read fixed incomes)

I'm sure it wasn't operator error!?

I doubt its related to fixed income, since after a while most seniors come to grasp of what there budget is and learn how to live with in them. well there is my mother-in-law but don't get me started on her, 70 yrs old and still doesn't understand a budget. I would assume its mostly related to low incomes and youth that want everything and the poor economy that brought the reality that everything comes with a price tag and interest if you put it on a credit card or loan.
