Housing unit is a house, an apartment, a group of rooms, or a single room occupied or intended for occupancy as separate living quarters. Separate living quarters are those in which the occupants live separately from others in the structure and which have direct access from the outside of the building or through a common hall. For vacant units, the criteria of separateness and direct access are applied to the intended occupants whenever possible. If the information cannot be obtained, the criteria are applied to the previous occupants. Tents and boats are excluded if vacant, used for business, or used for extra sleeping space or vacations. Vacant seasonal/migratory mobile homes are included in the count of vacant seasonal/migratory housing units. Living quarters of the following types are excluded from the housing unit inventory: Dormitories, bunkhouses, and barracks; quarters in predominantly transient hotels, motels, and the like, except those occupied by persons who consider the hotel their usual place of residence; quarters in institutions, general hospitals, and military installations except those occupied by staff members or resident employees who have separate living arrangements.

Only a small fraction of vacant housing units are actually considered available. Only vacant units for rent or for sale make up the available housing stock.

A low housing availability rate indicates a "tight" housing market (a seller's market or landlord's market) whereas a high housing availability rate indicates a buyer's or renter's market.This map shows the housing availability rate depicted by the color: pink indicates a low housing availability rate, and green indicates a high housing availability rate.

Texas, North Carolina, and Florida were the states with the highest number of mobile homes in the U.S. as of September 2023. Since 1994, the cumulative number of manufactured housing units shipped to Texas amounted to approximately *******. Texas was also home to the largest number of manufactured home production plants, with over ** facilities operating in the state. What is the price of a mobile home? Because they are factory manufactured, mobile homes are considerably less expensive than regular homes. In 2022, a double-width mobile home cost about ******* U.S. dollars. While this may be more affordable than buying a new home, there are drawbacks to owning a mobile home. For example, unless the home buyer also owns the land, the mobile home is likely to depreciate over time. In contrast, regular homeowners can expect that if home prices and land prices grow, their property will go up in value. The need for affordable housing With house prices and mortgage rates rising, while housing inventory remains limited, it has become increasingly difficult for prospective homebuyers to buy a home. To address this issue, the Biden-Harris administration released a housing supply action plan aiming to close the housing supply gap in the next five years. Within the scope of the plan are policies that encourage state and local zoning and land-use laws, piloting new financing for housing production and preservation, and preserving the availability of affordable housing for owner-occupants.
