Housing stock within San Felipe changed dramatically over the 20 year period of 1990 to 2010. The number of housing units
decreased by more than half with rental stock taking the largest hit, decreasing by over 70%. Owner-occupied
housing units rose from 61 units to 93 units. Construction activity picked up with the number of units under
construction increasing from 11 to 90 by 2010!
The number of condemned units rose in 2000 but declined greatly by 2010. This is likely a result of the tenant law in 1997
and the increase in development beginning in the early 2000s. As non-rent paying tenants were removed, some
units were likely declared condemned. These condemned units were rehabilitated, repurposed for uses other than
housing, or left vacant. In proportion terms condemned housing made up a slightly larger amount of the overall
housing units in 2010 going from 25% to 28%. The tenant law also may have influenced the decline in rental
units as the housing stock was likely redeveloped to its highest and best use.
