BUILDING PERMITS IN THE PRINCIPAL CITIES OF THE
UNITED STATES IN 1922.1
INTRODUCTION.
In collecting the data here compiled concerning building per­
mits issued in 1922, the Bureau of Labor Statistics sent a ques­
tionnaire to each of the 288 cities in the United States having
a population of 25,000 or over. The majority of these reports
were filled in and mailed by the building inspectors of the dif­
ferent cities, but because inspectors of some cities did not reply
quite a number of reports had to be obtained by personal visits of
agents of the bureau. Complete reports were finally received from
272 cities. The data were drawn either directly from the original
applications for permits on file in the local building inspector’s
office or from record books kept by him.
From the remaining 16 cities having a population of 25,000 or
over either no statement was obtained or a statement so fragmentary
as to be of no use in compiling this report. In the main the reason
for not obtaining data from these cities was that they either had no
building code or had one that did not require full reports as to the
number and cost of the different kinds of buildings specified by the
questionnaire sent out by the bureau.
Table 1 shows the total number and estimated cost of each of the
different kinds of new buildings covered by permits issued in the
272 cities from which reports were received, the per cent that each
kind is of the total number, and the per cent that the cost of each
kind is of the total cost, together with the average cost per building.
Also the table shows that 51.6 per cent of the total number of
buildings for which building permits were issued were residential
buildings and that 64.6 per cent of the total estimated cost of all
new buildings was for residence construction.
Of the 235,991 residential buildings projected 183,538, or 40.2 per
cent of the total number of buildings, were one-family houses, and
the sum of $772,359,368, or 30.7 per cent of the total estimated cost
of all new buildings, was to be spent in their construction.
The average estimated cost per one-family house was $4,208. In
Bulletin No. 318 of the Bureau of Labor Statistics it is shown that
the average estimated cost of a one-family house in 1921 was $3,967
and in 1920 was $4,319. This change in the average cost is probably
due largely to fluctuation in the cost of building material. It must
be borne in mind that the costs of buildings as stated in these tables
are “ estimated costs,” the estimate being made by the builder when
applying for his permit. Sometimes a change is made in the plans

which necessitates a change in the cost of the buildings; again, the
cost may be understated, m some cities because the fees for permits
are based on the stated cost of the building, and in others because
the assessor looks over the records of the building inspector, some
people hoping thus to keep the assessed value of the building low.

1 Less than one-tenth of 1 per cent.

Among nonresidential buildings the greatest number erected were
private garages. They comprised 35.3 per cent of the total number
of new buildings, but their cost was only 3 per cent of the total cost.
Private garages are almost always built on the same lot as a dwelling
house and have come to be considered almost as much a necessity
as a kitchen. In the nonresidential group the largest amount of
money spent was for stores and warehouses, 6.8 per cent of the whole
cost being spent for this class of buildings.
In spite oi the fact that the present has been denounced as a “ jazz
age,” it will be noticed that in 1922, in cities having a population of
25,000 or over, there were built more churches than amusement
buildings. Under the head of amusement buildings are listed
theaters, motion-picture theaters, bathing beaches, grand stands,
lodge rooms, etc. But while there were more churches than amuse­
ment buildings built, over $10,000,000 more was spent for the con­
struction of amusement buildings than for churches.

INTRODUCTION.

A careful study of this table shows that while only 51.6 per cent of
the new buildings erected in 1922 were residential, this is of greater
relative importance than the figure seems to indicate. For it will be
seen that 35.3 per cent of the total number of new buildings were
private garages and 5.5 per cent were sheds, and that while these two
classes of buildings thus make up the vast majority of the nonresidential buildings erected, since their average cost was only $464 and
$300, respectively, they were comparatively of minor importance.
Therefore, although nonresidential buildings comprised 48.4 per cent
of the total number of all new buildings, if the private garages and
sheds are deducted, all other classes of nonresidential buildings
combined account for only 7.6 per cent of the total number of new
buildings.
This preponderance of dwelling houses over large nonresidential
buildings shows that even more effort was being made to alleviate
the shortage of dwelling houses during 1922 than during 1921.
Table 2 shows in comparison the number and per cent of families
provided for in each of the different kinds of dwellings in the 262
cities from which reports were received for both 1921 and 1922.

The above table shows the tremendous increase in the number of
families provided with new homes in 262 identical cities in 1922 as
compared with 1921. Permits were issued in 1922 to provide for over
150,000 more families than were cared for by the buildings erected in
1921. Nearly 50,000 more families were to be housed in one-family
dwellings built in 1922 than in 1921. The number of families to be
accommodated in apartment houses was more than double that of
1921.
One of the most interesting facts brought out by this table is the
increase in the number of families to be housed in multi-family
apartment houses. In 1921, 55,037, or 24.3 per cent of the new
family accommodations were in the two classes of apartment houses,
while in 1922 the number had increased to 117,922 families, or 31.1
per cent of the total. There was also a marked gain in the number of
families to be domiciled in two-family houses m 1922 as compared
with the previous year, in 1922 72,478 families, composing 19.1 per
cent of the total number of families provided for, being provided for
in this class of dwellings as compared with 34,234, or 15.1 per cent, in
1921.

BUILDING PERMITS IN 1922.

On the other hand, the percentage of the total number of families
housed in one-family dwellings had fallen from 58.3 in 1921 to 47.7
in 1922 although the actual number increased by nearly 50,000.
This increase in the percentage of families in two-family and apart­
ment houses is in a large measure accounted for b y the fact that a
very small percentage o f the new one-family dwellings erected were
built to rent, and therefore a family which could not afford to build
was almost compelled to live in an apartment or a two-family house.
The two-family house is gaining quite a foothold in cities which
previously have had few, if any, of this class of dwelling. It is more
economical in construction, and it is a common practice for the owner
to rent one part to help him pay for the building. Many of these
houses are so constructed that with very little expense they can be
converted into one-family dwellings, the owner’s intention often being
to do this as soon as his home is paid for.
Table 3 shows the number and cost of each of the different kinds
of buildings, for the 262 cities from which reports were received in
both 1921 and 1922, and the percentage of increase or decrease in the
number and in the cost in 1922 as compared with 1921:

EXPLANATION OF GENERAL TABLE.

It will be seen that there was a large increase in both number
and cost of all classes of residential buildings in 1922; the increase
in number ranging from 11.4 per cent in the case of “ all other”
residential to 159.3 per cent for lodging houses, and the increase in
cost from 40 per cent for one-family and two-family dwellings with
stores combined to 216.8 per cent for “ all other” residential.
In all cases, except two-family houses and one-family and twofamily houses with stores combined, the increase in cost was greater
than the increase in number. This would tend to show that construc­
tion costs had materially advanced since 1921. It will be seen that
the number of one-family houses increased only 37.1 per cent while
the number of two-family houses and apartment houses advanced
111.7 per cent and 94.8 per cent, respectively. There was an increase
of 47.3 per cent in the total number of residential buildings in 1922
as compared with 1921, and an increase of 72 per cent in their cost.
The number of all the major classes of nonresidential building
showed an increase (sheds, stables, and barns and “ all other” non­
residential being of small importance). The increases ranged
from five-tenths of 1 per cent for office buildings to 67.1 per cent for
institutions (hospitals, homes, etc.). The money expended in the
construction of these major classes of nonresidential buildings, with
one exception, also showed an increase. The exception was that
of amusement buildings, which showed a decrease of 15.7 per cent.
From this it would seem that a small type of theater and motionpicture theater was becoming more popular, which probably is espe­
cially true of the motion-picture house.
The total number of nonresidential buildings increased 16.9 per cent
and the total cost 38 per cent. There was an increase of 30.9 per
cent in the total number of all buildings (both residential and non­
residential) and 58.3 per cent in the total cost.
EXPLANATION OF GENERAL TABLE.
General Table A shows detailed information concerning building
operations for 187 cities for the year 1920, 262 for the year 1921, and
272 for 1922. This table is divided into three parts. Part 1 relates
to new residential buildings, giving the number and cost of each
kind of dwelling, the number of families provided for, and the ratio
of families provided for to each 10,000 of population. The number
of families* provided for was not obtained in a number of cases in
1920. However, for 1921 and 1922 this information was secured
from every city shown on the report.
The table shows complete reports from 162 cities in 1920. These
cities had a population of 27,914,946 and homes were provided in
the new buildings for 81,124 families, which is at the rate of 29.1
families per 10,000 of population. In 1921 schedules were received
from 262 cities and the number of families provided for by the new
buildings was 226,659. The population of these cities shown by
the census of 1920 was 36,784,807. The ratio of families provided
for was therefore 61.6 per 10,000 of population. The returns for
1922 are complete for 272 cities, having a population of 37,252,627
and providing for 382,272 families, a ratio of 102.6 per 10,000 of
population.




BUILDING PERMITS IN 1922.

It will be noticed that there is great unevenness in the distribution
per 10,000 by cities and even by general sections of the country;
for instance, such wide variations as the following occurred in 1922:
Butte, Mont.............................. 4. 6
Hoboken, N. J ...........................4.0
Joplin, M o....................... ........... 4. 7
Newport, K y .............................. 3.1

East Cleveland, Ohio........
313. 3
Lakewood, O hio................
417.7
Long Beach, Calif............. 1,270.1
486.1
Los Angeles, Calif.............

The older cities seem to lag behind the newer communities; for
example, Boston showed a ratio of 3.9 families to each 10,000 of
population in 1920; this increased to 11.7 in 1921 and to 45.9 in
1922. On the other hand, in Los Angeles the ratio was 190.5 in
1920, 339.4 in 1921, and 486.1 in 1922. This difference is partly
explained by the fact that Boston has used up most of the available
building space in the city limits and has no way to expand in terri­
tory, as it is almost entirely surrounded by smaller cities and towns,
each having its own municipal government.
New York City shows a remarkable increase in the ratio of build­
ing to population, advancing from 22.3 per 10,000 in 1920 to 91.4
in 1921 and 162.2 in 1922. A total of 12,521 families were provided
for in 1920, as compared with 51,360 in 1921 and 91,164 in 1922.
In the other two cities in the country with a population of over one
million there was a material advance, Chicago increasing its ratio
from 11.1 in 1920 to 45.3 in 1921 and 89.7 in 1922, while the ratio
in Philadelphia increased from 13.2 in 1921 to 57.3 in 1922.
On the other hand, the ratio is decreasing in a few places. In
Muskegon, Mich., for instance, the ratio was 88.6 in 1920; in 1921 it
had dropped to 35.3 and in 1922 to 31.4. Birmingham, Ala.,
showed a slight decrease, dropping from 92.8 in 1921 to 81.5 in 1922.
Johnstown, Pa., Newport News, Va., and Charleston, W. Va., are
among the few other places which show a decrease for 1922 as com­
pared with 1921.
Part 2 of Table A gives the number and cost of new nonresidential
buildings. In 1920 public and private garages were included under
one heading; in 1921 and 1922 they are shown separately. Public
buildings and public works and utilities, grouped in 1920, are shown
separately for 1921 and 1922.
Part 3 shows the number and cost of additions, alterations, and
repairs to old buildings and the grand total of all buildings, both new
and old, for all three years. It also shows the number of installation
permits for 1921 and 1922.
For 1920 all additions, alterations, and repairs were grouped,
while in 1921 and 1922 an attempt was made to classify them under
the headings of repairs, etc., for housekeeping dwellings, nonhouse­
keeping dwellings, and nonresidential buildings.
Many of the cities
which reported by mail, however, grouped them. In 1920 permits
were issued for 187,360 additions, alterations, and repairs in 187
cities, and $281,465,884 was expended. In 1921 in the 262 cities re­
porting for that year 229,606 such permits were issued for $274,495,105, while the 272 cities reporting in 1922 show 251,271
permits and $287,942,953 as the amount expended.
The number of installation permits and their construction cost was
obtained in 1921 and 1922 whenever issued by the building inspector.
In a number of cities no permits were required for signs, tanks, etc.;




EXPLANATION OF GENERAL TABLE.

in other cities these permits were issued by offices other than that of
the building inspector.
The last two columns in part 3 show the number of families pro­
vided for by alterations to old buildings. Very few of the cities, it
will be noticed, give any report on this subject. Undoubtedly quite
a number of additional family accommodations are provided for in
this manner. Agents found in some towns one-family houses had
been altered so as to provide for from two to five families, and that
garages and barns with a little alteration had been made habitable
for one or more families.
In 1922 the 272 cities covered in this report issued a grand total of
769,984 building permits and $2,830,110,876 was the estimated cost
of construction. As far as any records are available this is the
largest amount ever expended in a single year.
Previous to the year 1920 the Geological Survey of the United
States Department of the Interior collected and published data
concerning the number and cost of buildings. The figures shown
below are the total amounts of money spent in 130 identical cities
from which information was obtained during the years 1914 to 1922,
inclusive. From 1914 to 1919, inclusive, the figures are taken from
the publications of the Geological Survey; for 1920, 1921, and 1922,
from the records of the Bureau of Labor Statistics:

The figures giving the cost of buildings, as shown by building
permits, can not be interpreted to indicate the relative physical
amount of building construction, because the costs of both materials
and labor used in such construction have varied from year to year.
The following table shows the index number of the wholesale
prices of building materials and the index number of the changes in
the union scale of wages in the b u llin g trades as a whole from 1913
to 1921, inclusive, as compiled by tne Bureau of Labor Statistics:
