$69.1M valuation latest month · $194.3M valuation year to date · 9 of 20 jurisdictions reported the latest month. Sum of covered PermitBase jurisdictions only (not a full-state total). County-level jurisdictions overlapping covered cities are excluded to avoid double counting. Non-reporting jurisdictions are omitted from sums, never zero-filled.
Monthly trend
Units authorized per month across the jurisdictions PermitBase covers. Months reported by only some offices are marked, because a partially-reported month is not a quieter month.
Permits by jurisdiction
Housing units authorized for new residential construction. Ranked by trailing-12-month units; jurisdictions that did not report to the Census Bureau show “no data reported” — never assumed to be zero.
