Good questions. Overall, 35 percent of the subdivisions are a phase of a larger project. On regional differences, we have a limited amount of geographic detail, but we can see that nearly half of the subdivisions in the South contain at least 100 housing units, compared to only about one-fourth in the other three Census divisions. However, the West tends to have a few really big projects. For this reason, the average number of housing units per subdivision is actually higher in the West than the South. Suggest following the hyperlink in the blog post to the full article, which includes detailed tables showing all this information.

Is the article referring to each phase as a subdivision? It only makes sense that it does given the average size and number of homes. Are there big regional differences? or is this another case of everything is bigger in Texas?
