- Place id: `us`
- Unit: count
- Definition: Estimated number of privately owned single-family housing units completed in the quarter and classified as built for sale. Census uses this category when the builder intends to sell the house and land in one transaction; it measures construction purpose, not sales made in that quarter.
- Note: Quarterly estimates count units in privately owned new housing. They are not seasonally adjusted or annualized. Census marks the newest quarterly release as preliminary and revises the prior quarter; quarterly totals may differ from annual totals because annual figures include late reports and corrections. A single-family home is complete when finished flooring is installed, or earlier if it is occupied before construction is finished.
