Whole U.S. Housing Story for September 2024
'Whole U.S. Housing Story' for September 2024. Request unabridged version via [email protected] Otherwise,
HUD-Code manufactured housing in September 2024 = 8814 units
Modular & panelized ('prefab') unit estimate for Sept. = 2256
Park Model RVs produced during September 2024 = 294
Total of offsite construction (above 3 categories) = 11,364 So now,
Census Bureau # of housing 'starts' during Sept 2024 = 112,833*
(+) Offsite construction subtotal from above = 11,364
Grand Total of all U.S. Housing 'starts' during Sept = 124,197
(-) 2256 modular & panelized (prefab) units in Sept = 121,941 The 'bottom line' for Sept.
End Note: 1 = 1,354,000 seasonally adjusted annual total X .02% & divided by 12 (months)
In time, hopefully this calculation (i.e. 121,941) will be adopted as the monthly housing figure instead of just referring to the Census Bureau's # of onsite housing 'starts', omitting all other types of housing starts (e.g. offsite construction)
