The published evidence provides the starting point: Peoria, AZ's current ACS housing baseline includes 79,085 total housing units, 73,824 occupied units, and 5,261 vacant units. Those counts can 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 5,261 homes were listed for sale or available to rent at one moment. For borrower planning, reading 79,085 total units with 73,824 occupied and 5,261 vacant units keeps the release internally grounded while leaving live availability to current listing and property evidence.

A grounded Peoria, AZ comparison starts with current listings and lease offers, then uses the ACS evidence to check whether the sample is being interpreted in the context of 79,085 total units, a vacancy share of 6.7%, and an owner share of 76.0%. For the rental budget, replace the $1,843 median with the actual lease, utilities, deposits, and expected changes. For ownership, keep the 76.0% share as market context while adding the selected property's price, taxes, insurance, maintenance, association obligations, loan disclosures, and cash-to-close. In practical terms, the resulting worksheet will not turn 24.0% or 76.0% into a recommendation, but it will keep the two paths comparable and make the remaining assumptions visible before a decision.
