Annual Housing Survey: Housing Characteristics for Selected Metropolitan Areas: Los Angeles-Long Beach, Calif., Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area
This report presents statistics on housing and household characteristics for the Los Angeles-Long Beach, Calif., Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA), based on interviews conducted with a sample of about 15,000 housing units between April 1980 and February 1981. The document consists of five parts: (1) statistics on general housing characteristics, (2) indicators of housing and neighborhood quality such as structural deficiencies, failures in plumbing, and neighborhood amenities; (3) financial characteristics, including income, property value, and rent; (4) data on recent mover household, and (5) financial characteristics cross-classified by indicators of housing and neighborhood quality. All sections provide breakdowns for black householders and householders of Spanish origin. In summary, the Los Angeles SMSA had an estimated 2,871,600 housing units in 1980, a net gain of 144,000 units over the 1977 estimate. This increase reflects 96,700 housing units added through new construction, minus 34,200 lost through demolition, disaster, or other means, plus 81,500 unspecified units that entered the inventory. Approximately 3 percent of the total housing stock was constructed since 1977, and most new construction occurred in the suburbs. The proportion of the inventory which was lost during this 3-year period was 1 percent for both the central city and the suburbs. The addition of 81,500 unspecified units is partially represented by additions not measured in the survey, such as conversions from fewer to more units and changes from nonresidential to residential use. Maps and materials on the survey methodology are supplied.
