1/ The homeownership rate is the number of owner-occupied housing units
calculated as a percent of occupied housing units.
2/ The homeowner vacancy rate is the percentage relationship between the
number of vacant units for sale only and the total homeowner inventory.
It is computed by dividing the number of vacant units for sale only by
the sum of the owner-occupied units and the number of vacant units that
are for sale only.
3/ The rental vacancy rate is the percentage relationship between the
number of vacant units for rent and the total rental inventory. It
is computed by dividing the number of vacant units for rent by the
sum of the renter-occupied units and the number of vacant units for rent.
