Hi everyone! This graph shows the % of people who own their homes, county by county. The data comes the American Community Survey estimates ending in 2024. Let me know if you have any questions about the graph!
[And if you want to see other graphs about mortgage rates and trends in the U.S, you can find that here! ](https://www.wbaltv.com/article/mortgage-free-homeowners-map-census/70188576)

I’m surprised by the relatively low rate of mortgage-free home ownership in California, given that one of the claimed effects of their Prop 13 restrictions on property tax increases has been to reduce turnover rates for existing homes.
This is a case where I really don’t like the scaling choice. Looks like there are zero counties under 20%, which basically wastes an entire classification. Meanwhile, 20-40% and 40-60% are huge ranges when the average is just under 40%. (Maybe a 7 color diverging scale leaving off under 20%.)
(Also, when you source is the ACS, you need to specify your geographic subunit, even if it looks fairly certain this is county/borough/parish.)
I think it would be more informative to see this %owned vs home cost vs average income.
