Nearly every metro area had more homeowners than renters in 2010. The metro areas with the highest homeownership rates were in Michigan and Florida. Monroe, Mich., had the highest percentage of owner-occupied units at 79.8 percent, followed by Punta Gorda, Fla., at 79.7 percent.
While the national homeownership rate remained high, the decrease in the rate from 2000 to 2010 by 1.1 percent – to 65.1 percent overall – is the largest decrease since the 1930 to 1940 period, the Census Bureau reported.
