Bellingham, WA's current ACS housing baseline includes 43,792 total housing units, 41,500 occupied units, and 2,292 vacant units. For borrower planning, those counts may help a borrower establish the scale of the measured housing base before comparing tenure, rent, current listings, property condition, and financing. The figures describe stock across the survey period; they do not say that 2,292 homes were listed for sale or available to rent at one moment. Reading 43,792 total units with 41,500 occupied and 2,292 vacant units keeps the release internally grounded while leaving live availability to current listing and property evidence.
Bellingham, WA's ACS median gross rent is $1,577, while renter-occupied units account for 55.4% of occupied housing and owner-occupied units account for 44.6%.
