“Renter-occupied structures” include:
- Single-Family Units: 15,194,827 structures with 47,652,188 residents living in them.
- 2 to 4 Units: 7,777,641 households, containing 19,008,529 residents.
- 5 or More Units: 18,299,474 households, containing 37,831,895 residents.
- Mobile Homes: 1,955,026
- Other: 40,464 [8]
