            Most homeowners in the Chicago area show a preference for new single family subdivisions. You get your own lot and typically a yard large enough to enjoy with your family and pets. Communities with single family homes dominate the new construction housing market in the Chicago area with 149 communities to choose from. No more shared walls and rarely a carport to be found. Due to consumer demand and their preference for single family houses, most production home builders focus on building these types of neighborhoods in the Chicago area. While some subdivisions have both single family sections and multi-family sections, most are dedicated to a single housing type.

            When you buy into a single family subdivision, you get many benefits. Privacy is the biggest benefit for most homeowners. Not only do you have less of a concern about noise, these communities often feels safer. Almost all single family homes in the Chicago metro area have private yards and garages. With a private yard, your kids and pets can safely play outside. Finally, most of the houses in a single family community are going to have ample storage that you rarely have in a condo or townhome.

            single family subdivisions and custom homes for sale represents the bulk of new construction in the U.S. This is carefully tracked by the Census Bureau in the monthly Building Permits Survey, and from the Survey of Construction (SOC). You can view the monthly New Residential Construction Press Release from Census.gov (PDF) which breaks down building permits, new build starts, and new housing completions. They show this for new single family homes (1-unit) as well as duplexes, and other multi-family new construction housing types. This report is generally released in the 3rd week of each calendar month showing data for the prior month.

            According to the U.S. Census Bureau for a new build to be considered a single family home, it must have specific attributes. These include: walls from ground to roof, a heating system separate from your neighbors, separately metered utilities, and no units above or below you.
