To ac<strong>com</strong>modate the tiering of impact fee assessments for the residential single family<br />

land use category, an analysis was <strong>com</strong>pleted on housing unit size and persons per<br />

housing unit, <strong>com</strong>paring nationwide averages with countywide information. This<br />

analysis utilized national data from the 2003 American Housing Survey (AHS) and from<br />

the 2000 Census data for <strong>Indian</strong> <strong>River</strong> <strong>County</strong> to examine this relationship.<br />

Table II-5 presents nationwide information about the number of residents per housing<br />

unit (single family) tiered in three different house sizes.<br />

To calculate the tiering for the three different categories, national residents per unit ratios<br />

for each housing unit category were applied to the county’s total residents per housing<br />

unit ratio for single family home. Tables II-6, II-7, and II-8 calculate the final residents<br />

per housing unit.<br />
