Homes <br />Housing is one of the most identifiable characteristics of a <br />neighborhood. Different elements related to housing, such as the <br />renter /owner mix, housing age and household characteristics play <br />crucial roles in how we define our neighborhoods. Santa Clara <br />Community Organization has 8,167 housing units. The majority <br />of the neighborhood's 20,231 residents live in the 7,891 of these <br />housing units that are occupied, and the remaining 76 residents are <br />living in group quarters. <br />Renter and Owner Homes <br />All neighborhoods in Eugene have a mix of both rental and <br />owner - occupied housing. Understanding this mix within <br />neighborhoods offers insight into the economic and social <br />fabric of a neighborhood. <br />A housing unit is owner - occupied if the owner or co -owner <br />lives in the unit, even if it is mortgaged or not fully paid for. <br />All occupied housing units which are not owner - occupied, <br />whether they are rented or occupied without payment of <br />rent, are classified as renter - occupied. <br />The chart below displays the percentage of owners and <br />renters in the neighborhood in relation to the types of <br />housing in which they live. What types of housing units are <br />most prevalent in our neighborhood? How might different <br />housing types reflect differing needs and circumstances <br />of neighborhood residents? How does the mix of housing <br />affect the character of the neighborhood? <br />Santa Clara Community Organization - <br />Occupied Housing Units <br />Renter <br />Occupied <br />2,002 <br />25% <br />Owner <br />Occupied <br />5,889 <br />75% <br />Data source: U.S. Census Bureau, Census 2010, Table H4 Tenure <br />Santa Clara Community <br />Organization - Housing Type <br />Owner: 1, detached <br />72% <br />Renter: 1, detached <br />10% <br />Owner: 1, attached <br />0% <br />Renter: 1, attached <br />In 8% <br />Owner: 2 units <br />0% <br />Renter: 2 units <br />2% <br />Owner: 3 or more units <br />0% <br />Renter: 3 or more units <br />4% <br />Owner: Mobile Home <br />3% <br />Renter: Mobile Home <br />I <br />1% <br />Renter: Boat, RV or Van, etc <br />0% <br />Data source: U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 1005 -09 Table 825032 <br />The chart data are <br />presented for the <br />number of housing <br />units in structures <br />of specified type <br />and size, not for <br />the number of <br />residential buildings. <br />T <br />City of Eugene Neighborhood Services — 2011 Neighborhood Analysis — Santa Clara Community Organization R7 <br />
