Here are 13 facts about my locality, based on the 2020 Census.
Total Population - 34,747 (100%)
Population in Households - 34,460 (99.2%)
Population in Families - 29,603 (85.2%)
Population in Group Quarters - 287 ( 0.8%) (this includes nursing home facilities)
Population Density - 64

Total HU (Housing Units) - 15,534 (100%)
Owner Occupied HU - 11,771 (75.8%)
Renter Occupied HU - 2,011 (12.9%)

We do not have a lot of affordable housing here, although that may be improving with the addition of apartment complexes on the southern end. Appearances and actual data are not always the same. That housing affordability index number surprised me the most.
I'm not good with numbers, have low comprehension on that when there are too many. Kind of like I don't process/recall directions well if at all.
ReplyDeleteWhat are "group quarters?" Are they SRO (single room occupancy) like the YMCA?
ReplyDeleteI suppose they could be, but we don't have anything like that in our county. We have nursing home facilities and that was the one thing in the list that actually applies to my locality.
