ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Eviction

Eviction is when someone is told they have to leave the place they are living. This could happen if the person hasn't been paying rent or if they have broken the rules of the place they are renting.

So imagine you're playing with your toys in your bedroom but your parents tell you that you have to leave and go to your friend's house for a while. It's kind of like that, but with a place to live instead of a bedroom.

When someone is being evicted, they have to pack up their things and find a new place to live. It can be really tough, especially if they don't have a lot of money to pay for a new place.

That's why it's important to make sure you always pay your rent and follow the rules if you're renting a place. That way you can stay in your home and not have to be evicted.
