What this visual supports

Read these limits with the chart
- Permitted housing units are not completed homes and do not show when construction started or finished.
- The HCD comparison selects Sacramento, reporting year, and permit issue dates within that calendar year before summing the units field.
- Agreement between the City and selected HCD totals is a consistency check. It does not independently verify every underlying record.
