Homeownership rate, annual survey average (US)

Owner households as a percentage of all households (occupied housing units), annual average of the Current Population Survey/Housing Vacancy Survey (CPS/HVS) of the U.S. Census Bureau. United States and states.

Keep it in a collection in your library.

Annual CPS/HVS survey estimates, distinct from ACS five-year estimates. State figures have sampling uncertainty, so a small change need not be statistically significant. Revised columns published on a new basis replace the original year and are marked as series breaks. Pandemic restrictions changed interviewing in 2020 and 2021, affecting comparability. The 2025 average covers 11 months: October was not collected during the lapse in federal funding, increasing uncertainty.
