Permits for single and multi-unit buildings are reported separately. The report I cited above is all UNITS i.e. the sum of all apartments in all buildings. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/LOSA106BP1FH The breakdown of permits issued in 2018 in Los Angeles was as follows: 1 Unit: 10042
2 Units: 1528
3-4 Units: 522
5+ Units: 17432
Total: 29524
Source: https://www.census.gov/construction/bps/txt/tb3u2018.txt As you can see from the total, this is not anywhere near 50000 units per year, as you initially claimed. These 30000 units are also spread across an area with diameter far greater than the 14 miles you started with. Also, in addition to being wrong about every other aspect of this debate, you are quite wrong about this one. By FAR the majority of PERMITS go to single-family homes. When you are very ignorant about a topic, it would be helpful to type less and read more. |
