Data from the 1980 and 1994 censuses were provided for comparative purposes. Asconcepts and definitions in 1980 may differ slightly from the 1994 and 2000 census, comparison may be limited only toaggregate statistics. There was no obvious limitation between the 1994 and 2000 data.114 Chuuk Branch Statistics Office, Division of Statistics, FSM Department of Economic Affairs
2000 FSM Census of Chuuk StateChapter 12. HousingAnalysis of Housing DataGeneral Housing CharacteristicsTable 12.1 presents the total number of housing units in Chuuk State by status of occupancy. Total number of housingunits increased from about 5,400 in 1980 to about 7,600 in 1994 then decreased to about 7,400 in 2000. This was a 40percent increase between 1980 and 1994 and about 2 percent decrease between 1994 and 2000.Table 12.1: Total Housing Units, Occupied Housing Units, and Others, Chuuk State: 1980, 1994 and 2000Number Percent change PercentTenure 1980 1994 2000 1980-1994 1994-2000 1980 1994 2000Total Housing Units 5,428 7,581 7,417 39.7 (2.2) 100.0 100.0 100.0Occupied 4,979 7,043 6,976- 41.5 (1.0) 91.7 92.9 94.1Vacant 449 538 441- 19.8 (18.0) 8.3 7.1 5.9Source: 1980 TTPI Census; 1994 & 2000 FSM Census, H02.Information on renter occupied units in combination with income and other characteristics is important for thegovernment and planning agencies to develop housing programs designed to meet the housing needs of people atdifferent economic levels. Table 12.2 shows the total occupied units and tenure by region in 1994 and 2000. In 2000,most of the units in Chuuk were owner occupied; about 93 percent, and 7 percent were renter occupied. Of the renteroccupied units, about 92 percent were occupied with no cash rent (or freely occupied), and about 8 percent wereoccupied with rent. The distribution for owner occupied and renter occupied units varied among the regions. OnlyNorthern Namoneas reported “renter--with cash” which was not surprising as it was where much of the labor marketwas concentrated and people most likely to live in rented housing. About 64 percent of the rented units in NorthernNamoneas were occupied with no cash. In the other regions all rented units were occupied without cash rent. This isexpected in such places as Chuuk where the existence of the extended family is common and people tended to sharetheir resources, especially among family members.Table 12.2: Total Housing Units by Region, Chuuk State: 1994 and 20001994 2000Total Occupied Total Occupiedhousing Renter housing RenterMunicipality units Total Owner Cash No cash Others units Total Owner Cash No cash OthersTotal 7,581 7,043 5,301 57 1,494 191 7,417 6,976 6,456 40 480 -Lagoon 5,823 5,423 4,032 56 1,204 131 5,585 5,268 4,840 40 388 -N.
