Population Increment / Household Size = Units Needed… (Using the Imagine Austin Population and Jobs Forecast) • City of Austin ~ 75K to 80K (roughly 180K population increment) • Imagine Austin Study Area ~ 95K to 100K (230K pop increment) • Austin—Round Rock MSA ~ 270K to 280K (700K pop increment) Caveats: • Account for fluctuations in Vacancy Rate • Enormous variation within Overall Household Size Selected Demographic Data Themes Ryan Robinson • Market conditions and Constraints City Demographer City of Austin
