Start with the dated local finding: Rockville, MD's current ACS housing baseline includes 28,289 total housing units, 26,976 occupied units, and 1,313 vacant units. In practical terms, those counts may help a borrower establish the scale of the measured housing base before comparing tenure, rent, current listings, property condition, and financing. The figures describe stock across the survey period; they do not say that 1,313 homes were listed for sale or available to rent at one moment. For the decision at hand, reading 28,289 total units with 26,976 occupied and 1,313 vacant units keeps the release internally grounded while leaving live availability to current listing and property evidence.
Vacant units in Rockville, MD decreased from 1,400 in the prior ACS period to 1,313 in the current release, a reported movement of 6.2%. In the current housing stock, 1,313 units equal 4.6% of the 28,289 total.
