Vacant Housing Units in the Lakeland, Florida Market Area
Housing vacancy data for the Lakeland, Fla., area including the city of Eaton Park are given. It is based on the area covered by the R. L. Polk City Directory and is provided separately for incorporated areas and the Polk enumeration districts for unincorporated areas. (A map is included.) The figures were gathered from September 26 to December 17, 1977, and are compared with those gathered in a similar survey for roughly the same period in 1976. Information includes number of housing units occupied by heads of households, whether these units are owned or rented, data on occupancy by size of housing structure (single - unit, multiple - unit with number of units), new construction, number of units occupied during the 1976 canvass which are now vacant, and the number of two - canvass vacancies, which is generally tied closely to deterioration and abandonment. It is found that the area as a whole had 35,016 housing units, of which 2,995 or 8.55 percent were vacant. Of these, 1,234 units, or 3.52 percent of total housing, were two - canvass vacancies. A total of 81.12 percent of these were single - unit structures, 6.08 percent were in structures with 5 to 19 units, and 9.89 percent were in structures with 20 or more units. The area also added 318 new housing units; 70.44 percent were single family units while 9.12 percent were structures with 5 to 19 units, and 17.30 percent were structures with 20 or more units. Statistical breakdowns pinpoint these housing changes.
