Basic Info
|
US Homeownership Rate reflects the percentage of US homes that are owned by their occupants, which is calculated by dividing the number of owner-occupied homes by the total number of occupied homes. The home ownership rate has historically been government-promoted, encouraging Americans to pursue home ownership, reaching a peak of roughly 69% home ownership throughout 2004, but declining in the following years as foreclosures increased and home values fell during the US Housing Crisis. US Home Ownership Rate is at 65.80%, compared to 67.40% last quarter and 65.10% last year. This is higher than the long term average of 65.25%. |
