Track housing, employment, infrastructure, retail, and other growth signals shaping industrial demand across Richmond.

Residential development snapshot

Every count is a dwelling unit. Under-development, planned, and completed units remain separate.

Coverage note: headline counts use records with reliable lifecycle dates so current, planned, and completed units remain directly comparable.

The Census authorization benchmark, recently completed units, and current-plus-planned pipeline are separate measures and are never added together. No coverage percentage is inferred from them.

Industrial + small-bay snapshot

Richmond

Reviewed industrial and small-bay project identities. Live pipeline is shown separately where lifecycle review is available; missing source lanes are never rendered as market zeros.

Each row is scoped to that authority’s retrieved records. The rows are not summed into a metro count or the national measured total; missing jurisdictions are not treated as zero.

Richmond has no published metro project count because only Chesterfield County and Hanover County supplied complete, gateable industrial corpora. Census geocoding now maps 87 of 219 counted authority projects; another 62 mapped scope-unstated or partial-acquisition candidates remain excluded. Goochland's incomplete acquisition and all other missing authorities remain unmeasured. Building SF and value are unavailable rather than zero. Existing Supply and Demand artifacts remain separate and nonadditive.

Accounting: Project counts are reviewed project identities, not raw permit rows or necessarily the live pipeline. Building area and value are shown only when the source or reviewed description supports them.
