Most residents have lived in the area for a significant length of time. Most have lived in their home for 3 to 10 years or over 20 years. The smallest percentage was for those living in the neighborhood for less than one year. It appears tliat turnover in the area w^ relatively low. These percentages were fairly consistent for all areas, with the exception of Area III, where the percentage living in the neighborhood for 3 to 10 years was 85%. This may have been due to the construction of new units in the mid 1980 ’s. Table 1.4 Ages of Children in Households Children <5 years 6-10 years Area I Area II Area II Area IV 7(18%) 6(21%) n/a 6(15%) 8 (20%) 2 (7%) n/a 5(12%) 11-14 years 15-18 years n/a 25 (63%)7(18%) 2 (7%) n/a 3 (7%) Total 18(15%) 15(12%) 12(10%) 6(5%) 1 (3%) n/a 18(64%) 1 (8%) 12 (92%) 4(10%) 26(63%) 81 (66%) Participants were asked if they have any children living at home and if so, to indicate their ages groups. An overwhelmingly high percentage of respondents did not have children living at home. Of those respondents who did have children, there was a fairly even distribution between the under five years, 5 to 10 years, and 11 to 14 years old categories. The number of households in Area III with children is low; 12% of the households have children.
