The local figures answer the first question: O'Fallon, MO's current ACS housing baseline includes 36,206 total housing units, 35,471 occupied units, and 735 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 735 homes were listed for sale or available to rent at one moment. In practical terms, reading 36,206 total units with 35,471 occupied and 735 vacant units keeps the release internally grounded while leaving live availability to current listing and property evidence.

Vacant units in O'Fallon, MO decreased from 1,131 in the prior ACS period to 735 in the current release, a reported movement of 35.0%. In the current housing stock, 735 units equal 2.0% of the 36,206 total.
