More than half of the housing units in Upper Northeast are single family homes. According to the 2000 Census, about 21 percent of the units were single-family detached homes, and 32 percent were row houses and townhomes. Both of these figures exceed the citywide average. About 18 percent of the units are in duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes, also higher than the citywide average. Conversely, only 8.3 percent of the area's housing stock consists of multi-family buildings of 50 units or more, compared to 23 percent in the city as a whole. 2404.1
The 2000 Census also reported that the number of renter households and the number of owner households in Upper Northeast was about equal. Much of Upper Northeast consists of stable, well-established housing stock with relatively low turnover. In 2000, almost 60 percent of the population had been living in their homes for five years or longer, significantly higher than the citywide average of 47 percent. 2404.2
