The published evidence provides the starting point: Union City, NJ's current ACS housing baseline includes 27,408 total housing units, 25,725 occupied units, and 1,683 vacant units. Those counts can 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 1,683 homes were listed for sale or available to rent at one moment. For borrower planning, reading 27,408 total units with 25,725 occupied and 1,683 vacant units keeps the release internally grounded while leaving live availability to current listing and property evidence.

Vacant units in Union City, NJ decreased from 2,392 in the prior ACS period to 1,683 in the current release, a reported movement of 29.6%. In the current housing stock, 1,683 units equal 6.1% of the 27,408 total.
