Homes and households
By the 2023 five-year American Community Survey, 47.9% of units are detached single-family homes and 60.6% of occupied units are owner-occupied. Some 62.8% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher.
Because only 47.9% of units are detached, shared walls and shared mechanicals shape the order of the visit.
