your payment is late
37% of the consumers in Tampa have made at least one late payment within the last year. Tampa ranks in the bottom five of the twenty largest markets. Dallas, Houston (41%), Phoenix (38%), and Orlando (37%) round out the highest credit risk. Note that those five are all warm-weather cities in the south, with a high percentage of service jobs.
But in Minneapolis (top of the list) 26% have at least one late payment. If the best we can do is 26%, I’d say there’s a problem with the companies extending credit, not the consumers. A quick check of the national score index shows the South Atlantic closely mirrors the national average in most credit categories. Experian Consumer Direct came up with the report.
