HUD's Office of Policy Development and Research Economic and Market Analysis Division has recently released a series of "Comprehensive Market Analysis Reports" focused four areas of the country. These market analyses were developed to guide HUD’s operations, however, the factual information, findings, and conclusions may also be useful to builders, mortgagees, and others concerned with local housing conditions and trends.

To support the market analysis and forecast, each report contains several data tables illustrating employment, demographic, and housing trends. Reports are currently available for Westchester County, New York; Lubbock, Texas; Elmira-Corning, New York; and Athens, Georgia.

HUD economists develop the factual framework for each analysis based on information available from both local and national sources as of a specific date. As such, the findings and conclusions of the reports may be modified by future developments. The reports take into consideration changes in the economic, demographic, and housing inventory characteristics of a specific housing market area during three periods: from 1990 to 2000, from 2000 to the "as of" date of the analysis, and from the "as of" date to a forecast date.

Comprehensive Market Analysis reports are available for download from HUD USER at https://www.huduser.gov.
