The published evidence provides the starting point: South Jordan, UT's current ACS housing baseline includes 27,365 total housing units, 26,740 occupied units, and 625 vacant units. 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 625 homes were listed for sale or available to rent at one moment. For borrower planning, reading 27,365 total units with 26,740 occupied and 625 vacant units keeps the release internally grounded while leaving live availability to current listing and property evidence.

Vacant units in South Jordan, UT decreased from 812 in the prior ACS period to 625 in the current release, a reported movement of 23.0%. In the current housing stock, 625 units equal 2.3% of the 27,365 total. ACS vacancy covers several statuses, so the 2.3% share cannot be read as the share of homes a buyer can purchase today or the share of rentals immediately available. For the decision at hand, the movement from 812 to 625 can still prompt better questions about current for-sale and rental inventory in South Jordan, UT, provided those questions are answered with timely listing and property data instead of the survey count alone.
