Description
BRENT2OWN12M reports whether anyone in the household has rented or leased anything from a rent-to-own store because it couldn't be financed any other way in the last 12 months.
This variable is part of the Unbanked/Underbanked Supplement.
Comparability
In 2011 and 2013 only those who reported having ever had a rent-to-own agreement were asked BRENT2OWN12M. This is not a requirement to be in universe in 2015 forward.
Question wording does change between years. 2011 and 2015 forward specify "We do not mean stores that offer installment plans or layaway plans." In 2013, the question specifies further not to consider "leasing cars or other installment payment plans that require credit check or layaway plans".
In 2019-forward, nonresponses to Unbanked/Underbanked Supplement questions were allocated based on households with similar demographics. The data quality flag for BRENT2OWN12M is QBRENT2OWN12M.
