Annual Housing Survey: 1973. United States and Regions. Part A: General Housing Characteristics
A series of tables contain statistics on the size and composition of the United States housing inventory, the characteristics of occupants, changes resulting from new construction and from losses, indicators of housing and neighborhood quality, and the characteristics of recent movers. Text and tables summarize the highlights of the survey while additional tables give detailed breakdowns by region and by race of occupant. In October 1973, there were 75,969,000 housing units in the United States. About 91 percent, or 69.3 million, were occupied while the remaining 6.6 million were vacant. An estimated 51.1 million units, or 67 percent, were inside standard metropolitan statistical areas, about the same percentage as in 1970. However, during this 3 - year period suburban units increased from 51.2 percent to 52.8 percent. The period also saw an increase in total housing stock with 8 million units built while 2.2 million were either demolished or removed by natural disaster or some other means. Single - family homes accounted for 68 percent of all year - round housing, multiunit structures for 28 percent, and mobile homes and trailers for 4 percent. The tables provide detailed breakdowns of value of units, gross rents, income of owner or renter, housing characteristics, and occupant characteristics. Appendices give the study methodology and a copy of the survey questionnaire.
