DisclaimerBefore using this layer, please review the 2018 Rochester Citywide Housing Market Study for the full background and context that is required for interpreting and portraying this data. Please click here to access the study. Please also note that the housing market typologies were based on analysis of property data from 2008 to 2018, and is a snapshot of market conditions within that time frame. For an accurate depiction of current housing market typologies, this analysis would need to be redone with the latest available data.About the DataThis is a polygon feature layer containing the boundaries of all census blockgroups in the city of Rochester. Beyond the unique identifier fields including GEOID, the only other field is the housing market typology for that blockgroup.Information from the 2018 Housing Market Study- Housing Market TypologiesThe City of Rochester commissioned a Citywide Housing Market Study in 2018 as a technical study to inform development of the City's new Comprehensive Plan, Rochester 2034, and retained czb, LLC – a firm with national expertise based in Alexandria, VA – to perform the analysis.Any understanding of Rochester’s housing market – and any attempt to develop strategies to influence the market in ways likely to achieve community goals – must begin with recognition that market conditions in the city are highly uneven. On some blocks, competition for real estate is strong and expressed by pricing and investment levels that are above city averages. On other blocks, private demand is much lower and expressed by above average levels of disinvestment and physical distress. Still other blocks are in the middle – both in terms of condition of housing and prevailing prices. These block-by-block differences are obvious to most residents and shape their options, preferences, and actions as property owners and renters. Importantly, these differences shape the opportunities and challenges that exist in each neighborhood, the types of policy and investment tools to utilize in response to specific needs, and the level and range of available resources, both public and private, to meet those needs. The City of Rochester has long recognized that a one-size-fits-all approach to housing and neighborhood strategy is inadequate in such a diverse market environment and that is no less true today. To concisely describe distinct market conditions and trends across the city in this study, a Housing Market Typology was developed using a wide range of indicators to gauge market health and investment behaviors. This section of the Citywide Housing Market Study introduces the typology and its components. In later sections, the typology is used as a tool for describing and understanding demographic and economic patterns within the city, the implications of existing market patterns on strategy development, and how existing or potential policy and investment tools relate to market conditions.Overview of Housing Market Typology PurposeThe Housing Market Typology in this study is a tool for understanding recent market conditions and variations within Rochester and informing housing and neighborhood strategy development. As with any typology, it is meant to simplify complex information into a limited number of meaningful categories to guide action. Local context and knowledge remain critical to understanding market conditions and should always be used alongside the typology to maximize its usefulness.Geographic Unit of Analysis The Block Group – a geographic unit determined by the U.S. Census Bureau – is the unit of analysis for this typology, which utilizes parcel-level data. There are over 200 Block Groups in Rochester, most of which cover a small cluster of city blocks and are home to between 600 and 3,000 residents. For this tool, the Block Group provides geographies large enough to have sufficient data to analyze and small enough to reveal market variations within small areas.Four Components for CalculationAnalysis of multiple datasets led to the identification of four typology components that were most helpful in drawing out market variations within the city:• Terms of Sale• Market Strength• Bank Foreclosures• Property DistressThose components are described one-by-one on in the full study document (LINK), with detailed methodological descriptions provided in the Appendix.A Spectrum of Demand The four components were folded together to create the Housing Market Typology. The seven categories of the typology describe a spectrum of housing demand – with lower scores indicating higher levels of demand, and higher scores indicating weaker levels of demand. Typology 1 are areas with the highest demand and strongest market, while typology 3 are the weakest markets.

House Price Index YoY in the United States decreased to 3 percent in April from 3.90 percent in March of 2025. This dataset includes a chart with historical data for the United States FHFA House Price Index YoY.

This dataset uses data provided from Washington State’s Housing Market, a publication of the Washington Center for Real Estate Research (WCRER) at the University of Washington.

Median sales prices represent that price at which half the sales in a county (or the state) took place at higher prices, and half at lower prices. Since WCRER does not receive sales data on individual transactions (only aggregated statistics), the median is determined by the proportion of sales in a given range of prices required to reach the midway point in the distribution. While average prices are not reported, they tend to be 15-20 percent above the median.

Movements in sales prices should not be interpreted as appreciation rates. Prices are influenced by changes in cost and changes in the characteristics of homes actually sold. The table on prices by number of bedrooms provides a better measure of appreciation of types of homes than the overall median, but it is still subject to composition issues (such as square footage of home, quality of finishes and size of lot, among others).

There is a degree of seasonal variation in reported selling prices. Prices tend to hit a seasonal peak in summer, then decline through the winter before turning upward again, but home sales prices are not seasonally adjusted. Users are encouraged to limit price comparisons to the same time period in previous years.

Effective public transportation pricing strategies are critical to reducing traffic congestion and meeting consumer demand for sustainable urban development. In this study, we construct a dynamic game pricing model and a social learning network model for consumers of three modes of public transportation including metro, bus, and pa-transit. In the model, the metro, bus, and pa-transit operators maximize their profits through dynamic pricing optimization, and consumers maximize their utility by adjusting their travel habits through social learning in the social network. The reinforcement learning algorithm is applied to simulate the model, and the results show that: (1) as consumers’ perceived sensitivity to different modes of travel increases, the market share and price of each mode of travel adjust accordingly. (2) When taking into account consumers’ social learning behavior, the market share of metros remains high, while the market shares of buses and pa-transit are relatively low. (3) As consumers become more sensitive to their perception of each travel mode, operators invest more resources in improving service quality to gain market share, which in turn affects the price of each travel mode. Our results provide decision support for optimal pricing of urban public transportation.

The “richness index” represents the level of economical wellbeing a country certain area in 2010. Regions with higher income per capita and low poverty rate and more access to market are wealthier and are therefore better able to prepare for and respond to adversity. The index results from the second cluster of the Principal Component Analysis preformed among 9 potential variables. The analysis identifies four dominant variables, namely “GDPppp per capita”, “agriculture share GDP per agriculture sector worker”, “poverty rate” and “market accessibility”, assigning weights of 0.33, 0.26, 0.25 and 0.16, respectively. Before to perform the analysis all variables were log transformed (except the “agriculture share GDP per agriculture sector worker”) to shorten the extreme variation and then were score-standardized (converted to distribution with average of 0 and standard deviation of 1; inverse method was applied for the “poverty rate” and “market accessibility”) in order to be comparable. The 0.5 arc-minute grid total GDPppp is based on the night time light satellite imagery of NOAA (see Ghosh, T., Powell, R., Elvidge, C. D., Baugh, K. E., Sutton, P. C., & Anderson, S. (2010).Shedding light on the global distribution of economic activity. The Open Geography Journal (3), 148-161) and adjusted to national total as recorded by International Monetary Fund for 2010. The “GDPppp per capita” was calculated dividing the total GDPppp by the population in each pixel. Further, a focal statistic ran to determine mean values within 10 km. This had a smoothing effect and represents some of the extended influence of intense economic activity for the local people. Country based data for “agriculture share GDP per agriculture sector worker” were calculated from GDPppp (data from International Monetary Fund) fraction from agriculture activity (measured by World Bank) divided by the number of worker in the agriculture sector (data from World Bank). The tabular data represents the average of the period 2008-2012 and were linked by country unit to the national boundaries shapefile (FAO/GAUL) and then converted into raster format (resolution 0.5 arc-minute). The first administrative level data for the “poverty rate” were estimated by NOAA for 2003 using nighttime lights satellite imagery. Tabular data were linked by first administrative unit to the first administrative boundaries shapefile (FAO/GAUL) and then converted into raster format (resolution 0.5 arc-minute). The 0.5 arc-minute grid “market accessibility” measures the travel distance in minutes to large cities (with population greater than 50,000 people). This dataset was developed by the European Commission and the World Bank to represent access to markets, schools, hospitals, etc.. The dataset capture the connectivity and the concentration of economic activity (in 2000). Markets may be important for a variety of reasons, including their abilities to spread risk and increase incomes. Markets are a means of linking people both spatially and over time. That is, they allow shocks (and risks) to be spread over wider areas. In particular, markets should make households less vulnerable to (localized) covariate shocks. This dataset has been produced in the framework of the “Climate change predictions in Sub-Saharan Africa: impacts and adaptations (ClimAfrica)” project, Work Package 4 (WP4). More information on ClimAfrica project is provided in the Supplemental Information section of this metadata.

Data publication: 2014-05-15

Supplemental Information:

ClimAfrica was an international project funded by European Commission under the 7th Framework Programme (FP7) for the period 2010-2014. The ClimAfrica consortium was formed by 18 institutions, 9 from Europe, 8 from Africa, and the Food and Agriculture Organization of United Nations (FAO).

ClimAfrica was conceived to respond to the urgent international need for the most appropriate and up-to-date tools and methodologies to better understand and predict climate change, assess its impact on African ecosystems and population, and develop the correct adaptation strategies. Africa is probably the most vulnerable continent to climate change and climate variability and shows diverse range of agro-ecological and geographical features. Thus the impacts of climate change can be very high and can greatly differ across the continent, and even within countries.

The project focused on the following specific objectives:

1. Develop improved climate predictions on seasonal to decadal climatic scales, especially relevant to SSA;

2. Assess climate impacts in key sectors of SSA livelihood and economy, especially water resources and agriculture;

3. Evaluate the vulnerability of ecosystems and civil population to inter-annual variations and longer trends (10 years) in climate;

4. Suggest and analyse new suited adaptation strategies, focused on local needs;

5. Develop a new concept of 10 years monitoring and forecasting warning system, useful for food security, risk management and civil protection in SSA;

6. Analyse the economic impacts of climate change on agriculture and water resources in SSA and the cost-effectiveness of potential adaptation measures.

The work of ClimAfrica project was broken down into the following work packages (WPs) closely connected. All the activities described in WP1, WP2, WP3, WP4, WP5 consider the domain of the entire South Sahara Africa region. Only WP6 has a country specific (watershed) spatial scale where models validation and detailed processes analysis are carried out.
