Collin County, TX [48085]
.. Building Permits Profile
.. Updated 03/06/17
Building permits, new authorized residential construction, data are a leading economic indicator. An increase in the number of building permits can signal the start or increase in economic activity. These data are important to businesses, governments, policy-makers and stakeholders that get down to individual residents - how is my city changing? Building permits data are collected by thousands of cities, counties and metros across the country. Many permit issuing places tabulate these data monthly, others report the data annually. These data can provide a continuous measure of the health of a city, county and region.
Building permits data tell us about the formation of the size and characteristics of the housing stock at the county and sub-county level. Building permits are the first step in the sequence of building permits to housing starts to housing completions. The number of housing units built in non-permit areas is about 2.5 percent of the total -- building permit data provide a fairly comprehensive measure.
This profile is focused on monthly building permits for one area. The table presented below shows rows for the number of buildings, units and value for each of single unit in structure, 2-units in structure, 3-4 units in structure and 5 or more units in structure. The total column shows the total for the 12 most current months.

Do you need more geographically detailed data or analyses? We can geocode building permits by address. Using these geocoded data we can summarized the data by ZIP code area or census tract. We can also use the data in a GIS application so that you can view the data in a map and perform related geospatial applications. Associate the building permit data with other types of geography and subject matter.

About the Data
New authorized residential construction monthly time series data enable analysts to examine trends and can provide insights into business cycles, upturns and downturns. It may take four months to establish an underlying trend for building permit authorizations, five months for total starts and six months for total completions.
Data on construction authorized by building permits are based upon reports submitted by local building permit officials. We use two sources of reported data.
• C-404, "Report of Building or Zoning Permits Issued and Local Public Construction"
.. data updated monthly based on the Census Bureau mail survey of permit issuing cities/places and counties.
.. these data have a 2-month lag from reference month to data access date.
• DIrect collection of permits issued for current month by ProximityOne
.. updated monthly based on ProximityOne direct data collection from permit issuing agencies.
.. these reduce the lag in most recent data from 2 months to one month.
