About these figures

Homes are counted by the clientele the register lists (families, seniors, other); the register’s count by bedroom differs for a few buildings.

The register lists today’s buildings: a year counts the buildings standing now that opened then.

The organisation is on 14 years of the City’s payment schedules under the same name; what it received is not what the City spent on housing.
