The sharpest spike emanated from North Dakota, where TransUnion reported delinquencies rose 32.5 percent to a rate of 0.73 percent. Other states with significant rises were Montana (up 23.7 percent to 0.83 percent), Idaho (up 22.0 percent to 0.75 percent) and Wyoming (up 21.9 percent to 1.08 percent).
Only one state registered a delinquency decrease in Q2. Analysts said it happened in New Hampshire, where the rate softened — barely — by 0.7 percent to settle at 0.64 percent.
