A-20 | City of Pleasanton Housing Needs Assessment <br />Figure A-13: Overcrowding Severity <br /> <br />Notes: <br />The Census Bureau defines an overcrowded unit as one occupied by 1.01 persons or more per room (excluding bathrooms and <br />kitchens), and units with more than 1.5 persons per room are considered severely overcrowded. <br />Source: ABAG 2021 Pre-certified Housing Needs Data (U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development <br />(HUD), Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) ACS tabulation, 2013-2017 release) <br /> <br />Overcrowding often disproportionately impacts low-income households. Regardless of tenure, 1.2 <br />percent of extremely low-income households (below 30 percent AMI) experience severe <br />overcrowding, while 0.6 percent of households above 100 percent experience this level of <br />overcrowding (see Figure A-14). Similar levels of severe overcrowding are experienced by all <br />lower income households (below 80 percent AMI). <br />97%92%93% <br />5%4% <br />0.0% <br />10.0% <br />20.0% <br />30.0% <br />40.0% <br />50.0% <br />60.0% <br />70.0% <br />80.0% <br />90.0% <br />100.0% <br />Pleasanton Alameda County Bay Area <br />Pe <br />r <br />c <br />e <br />n <br />t <br /> <br />o <br />f <br /> <br />H <br />o <br />u <br />s <br />e <br />h <br />o <br />l <br />d <br />s <br />1.00 occupants per room or less 1.01 to 1.50 occupants per room <br />1.50 occupants per room or more
