Check your SAS documentation for the WHERE command. For example, if you wanted just owner-occupied units, you could specify:
WHERE Status = '1' AND Tenure = '1';
This can be used in both DATA and PROC steps. It can also be used as a data set option:
DATA OWNERS;
SET AHS.AHS2001
(WHERE = (Status = '1' AND Tenure = '1'));
etc.
