SUMMARY OF FINDINGS This report provides monthly statistics on the number of new privately-owned housing units completed and under construction. This report is released jointly by the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Privately owned housing units were completed in June 2000 at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1,539,000. This is 10 (±7) percent below the revised May rate of 1,705,000, and 7 (±7) percent below the June 1999 rate of 1,657,000. The June 2000 rate of single-family housing completions was 1,206,000. This is 13 (±7) percent below the revised May rate of 1,384,000. The rate for units in buildings with five units or more was 300,000, and the rate for units in buildings with two to four units was 33,000. Through the first 6 months of 2000, there were 762,800 units completed compared with 754,800 for the same time period last year. This is an increase of 1 (±3) percent. The seasonally adjusted estimate of housing units under construction at the end of June 2000 was 1,022,000. This is virtually unchanged (±1 percent) from the revised May estimate of 1,024,000. Of these, 694,000 were single-family structures, 305,000 were in buildings with five units or more, and 23,000 were in buildings with two to four units. EXPLANATION The statistics in this report are estimated from sample surveys and are subject to sampling variability as well as nonsampling error including bias and variance from
response, nonreporting, and undercoverage. Estimated average relative standard errors of preliminary data are shown in the tables. Whenever a statement such as ‘‘2 (±3) percent above’’ appears in the text, this indicates the range (-1 to +5 percent) in which the actual percent change is likely to have occurred. All ranges given for percent changes are 90-percent confidence intervals and account only for sampling variability. If a range contains zero, it is unclear whether there was an increase or decrease; that is, the change is not statistically significant. For any comparison cited without a confidence interval, the change is statistically significant. In interpreting changes in the seasonally adjusted rates of housing completions, note that month-to-month changes may reflect movements that may be irregular. It may take 4 months to establish an underlying trend for total completions. The appendix in the January 2000 issue of this report includes explanations of confidence intervals and sampling variability. On average, the preliminary seasonally adjusted estimates of total housing completions are revised about ±1 percent. Housing completions and under construction statistics do not include HUD-coded manufactured homes. HISTORICAL DATA Housing completions data have been collected since 1968. Housing starts are available from 1889 to the present date. Historical data for all these series are available from the Residential Construction Branch, Manufacturing and Construction Division, U.S. Census Bureau, Washington, DC 20233-6900.
