This dataset depicts housing production in the City of Saint Paul from 2010 to Q3 2023.  New dwelling units are delineated by whether the units constructed were subsidized/affordable units, or unsubsidized/market rate units.
<div>This dataset is an authoritative inventory of new housing units constructed in the City of Saint Paul from 2010 to the most recent available quarter. The data originates from two sources: the City's permitting system, and from the city's records on housing affordability. The dataset helps provide a deeper understanding of trends in market rate and affordable housing production.<br /><br />For the purposes of this dataset, the delineation of &quot;subsidized / affordable units&quot; is 
tied to the construction of the new units: does the project — its development financing or the regulatory framework under which it was built —
require units be affordable upon the completion of construction?  This 
definition of affordability does not include units that are affordable 
only because of a post-construction subsidy or other similar subsequent commitment to 
affordability, such as through the city's Rental Rehab Loan Program or 
4d Affordable Housing Incentive Program.  It does, however, include units that are affordable under the terms of zoning district-based density bonuses for affordability, though such projects comprise a very small portion of the larger total, and are identified in the Notes column of the associated table.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div>This dataset will be updated quarterly, given the manual work currently involved in bringing it up-to-date.  It is the product of work over five years across three City departments.</div><div><br /></div><div>Field definitions are available on <a href='https://arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=e2f3690a8d70461badf4a2b7654ba16a&amp;sublayer=59' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>this item information page for the individual Housing production layer</a>.  In addition to being available for download through the Open Information website, this data is perhaps more easily accessible in an interactive <a href='https://stpaul.maps.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/5aae888c73004b17adef51e0bbab7464' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>Housing Production Dashboard</a>.<br /></div><div><br />This data is designed under a methodology specific to the City of Saint Paul.  Other government entities use the same originating permit data, but somewhat divergent methodologies, which can produce very different results.  We believe this particular methodology gives the fullest and most timely depiction of housing production available.  For specific details, see the &quot;Methodologies Compared&quot; tab at the bottom of the <a href='https://stpaul.maps.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/5aae888c73004b17adef51e0bbab7464' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>Housing Production Dashboard</a>.<br /></div><div><br /></div>
