Third of households who became homeless in recent months evicted from rentals

Evictions seem to be the second most common reason for homelessness after “a breakdown in a relationship/ change in family relations”.

How can these other categories make up 66% of homelessness, and what does a “change in family relations” really mean that people end up in emergency axcomodation?

I would have expected (particularly based on the rhetoric in this sub, online and in other media) that evictions would have composed more like 60-70% of homelessness. Also bear in mind that this is at an eviction spike point after the eviction ban.
