Summary

Darker amber is a higher share of occupied housing units that are owner-occupied. Puerto Rico is listed in the ranking and table but is not on this map.

Among the 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, a typical published area has 67.2% of occupied housing units owner-occupied, the midpoint of these 52 rates on the 2023 ACS five-year estimates. West Virginia is highest at 74.3%, then Maine at 74.0% and Michigan at 72.9%. District of Columbia is lowest at 41.1%. 51 of the 52 published areas have an owner-occupied majority. That state midpoint is not a United States homeownership rate: if every occupied unit in these areas is pooled, the owner-occupied share is 65.1%, because larger states weigh more.

Owner-occupied share, owner and renter counts, and margins of error for every state, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico on the 2023 ACS five-year estimates. Sort any column or use the filter box to jump to a state by name. The owner-occupied share is a rate for that area alone, so those percentages cannot be averaged into a United States figure.

About this data

  • Homeownership rate is owner-occupied housing units divided by occupied housing units (ACS table B25003). Vacant units are not in the denominator.
  • A midpoint of these state rates is not a United States homeownership rate. Larger states weigh more when occupied units are pooled, and Puerto Rico is included in this published set.
  • The Census published 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. None of the tenure counts were suppressed.
  • The map covers the 48 contiguous states plus insets for Alaska and Hawaii. Puerto Rico stays in the ranking and table but is not shaded on this map.
  • Margins of error for the owner-occupied share are approximated from the ACS count margins using the Census ratio formula. ACS special values such as -555555555 are stored as missing and shown as a dash.
