Vacant Housing Units in the Lawton, Oklahoma Market Area
Vacancy information is provided for the area of Lawton, Okla., covered by the R. L. Polk City Directory and is reported separately for incorporated areas and Polk enumeration districts covering unincorporated areas. (A map is included.) Data were gathered between January and March of 1978 and are compared with data gathered between December 1976 and January 1977. The statistics include the following information: number of housing units by type (single - unit and multiple - unit by number of units); number of housing units occupied by a 'head of household'; number of housing units occupied by owners and renters; number of current year vacancies (which includes both units identified as occupied in the 1977 canvass which are now vacant and new construction); and number of two - canvass vacancies, which are generally tied closely to conditions of deterioration and abandonment. Vacancy data are presented also by the number of housing units in the structure. Data shows that Lawton had 27,438 housing units, of which 1,980 were vacant, for a vacancy rate of 7.22 percent. Vacancy rates were highest for structures with 5 to 19 housing units (9.32 percent) and 2 to 4 units (9.01 percent). There were 871 two - canvass vacancies, or 3.17 percent of the total housing units. Most of these were single - unit dwellings. The statistical breakdown pinpoints vacancy data by both geographical area and type of unit.
