The starting point for any housing market analysis is a profile of households by income, age, size, and tenure, such as the profile shown below. You will see, for example, that quickest way to "overstate" the seniors housing market (with services) is the failure to breakout one person households from total households. This oversight is the most common reason for misjudging the size of seniors housing markets (with services).
