It appears that the census criteria will identify some second homes that are not occupied as vacant homes, even though they are in fact second homes and used seasonally. This is a fairly large number in Florida and may be leading to some misleading census data.Gabe Sandershttp://profiles.google.com/gabesandersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13164186.post-87689645741297827542011-03-24T18:37:44.939-04:002011-03-24T18:37:44.939-04:00That is interesting Adrian.
