Annual Housing Survey: 1980. Housing Characteristics for Selected Metropolitan Areas: Albany-Schenectady-Troy, N.Y., Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area
This report presents statistics on housing and household characteristics for the Albany-Schenectady-Troy, N.Y., Standard Metropolitan Statical Area (SMSA), based on data collected from a sample of 5,000 housing units between April 1980 and March 1981. The document contains five parts: (1) statistics on general housing characteristics, with comparisons to 1970 and 1977; (2) indicators of housing and neighborhood quality such as services available, structural deficiencies, and owner versus renter occupied; (3) financial characteristics (income, property value, rent paid); (4) characteristics of recent mover households; and (5) financial characteristics cross-indexed by indicators of housing and neighborhood quality. All sections provide breakdowns on housing units with black householders and householders of Spanish origin. The October 1980 estimate of total housing units for the Albany-Schenectady-Troy SMSA is 295,400, a net gain of 20,700 units over the 1977 estimate. This reflects 8,500 units added through new construction, minus 5,700 units lost through demolition, disaster, or other means, plus 17,900 unspecified units that entered the inventory. Approximately 3 percent of the total housing stock in the SMSA was constructed since 1977, and most new construction occurred in the suburbs. Approximately 4 percent of all housing in the suburbs was built since 1977, compared with 1 percent in the three central cities. The proportion of the housing inventory lost between 1977-80 was 3 percent for the central city areas and 1 percent for the suburbs. Definitions, a sample questionnaire, and maps are included.
