@ekpresent: I mainly want to make you aware that our 4000+ bin models will be decreasing in floor area by A LOT. I always had an issue with the 4000+ ft2 bin floor area. |
@afontani are you saying we are not modeling McMansions anymore? |

Sorry to just be looking at this now. I'd be interested in the binned averages. Like, did this change the average for homes under 4000 sq ft much? I can talk to @afontani offline if that's better. |

Pull Request Description
Current approach: The simulated floor area was based on RECS 2009. The floor area bins simulated are based on AHS floor area bins. The floor area was broken out into model types (Multifamily, Single-Family Detached, and Single-Family Attached).
Problem with the current approach: The largest bin (>4,000 ft2) in RECS had a large mean for each model type. The large floor areas are likely due to the small sample sizes in the RECS data.
Update: Use the AHS 2019, 2021 data for the simulated conditioned floor area ResStock arguments. Link to the AHS table used is HERE. For multi-family the ACS multi-family building types were combined using a weighted average where there were enough samples.
Impact: Impacts to floor areas
Caveats:
So according to RECS and AHS ResStock's floor area estimates in ResStock are low. The "Before" values are closer to AHS and RECS than the "After". The largest contribution to the change was updating the 4,000+ ft2 bin. This likely points to the importance of the long tails of this distribution. However, I believe the smaller 4,000 ft2 floor areas are closer to reality for most of the dwelling units.
This states that we do not model "megamansions" in ResStock.
Detailed update
Here is a table that outlines the data used before and for this update. Some data is missing from AHS 2021 and either data from 2019 or total floor area bin data from 2021 was used.
