Notes:               A housing unit is vacant if no one is living in it at the time of the
                     interview, unless its occupants are only temporarily absent. In
                     addition, a vacant unit may be one which is entirely occupied by
                     persons who have a usual residence elsewhere. New units not yet
                     occupied are classified as vacant housing units if construction has
                     reached a point where all exterior windows and doors are installed and
                     final usable floors are in place. Vacant units are excluded if they
                     are exposed to the elements, that is, if the roof, walls, windows, or
                     doors no longer protect the interior from the elements, or if there is
                     positive evidence (such as a sign on the house or block) that the unit
                     is to be demolished or is condemned. Also excluded are quarters being
                     used entirely for nonresidential purposes, such as a store or an
                     office, or quarters used for the storage of business supplies or
                     inventory, machinery, or agricultural products. Vacant sleeping rooms
                     in lodging houses, transient accommodations, barracks, and other
                     quarters not defined as housing units are not included in the
                     statistics.
