The local figures answer the first question: Fairfield, CA's current ACS housing baseline includes 40,391 total housing units, 38,757 occupied units, and 1,634 vacant units. For the decision at hand, 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 1,634 homes were listed for sale or available to rent at one moment. In practical terms, reading 40,391 total units with 38,757 occupied and 1,634 vacant units keeps the release internally grounded while leaving live availability to current listing and property evidence.
Fairfield, CA's ACS median gross rent is $2,266, while renter-occupied units account for 38.7% of occupied housing and owner-occupied units account for 61.3%.
