Albemarle County has released the 2006 First Quarter Building Report.  Thus
I have updated my previous analysis of where new building permits are being
issued in the County.  These do not reflect ALL newly approved developments,
but rather homes in developments previously approved where a building permit
has now been issued. 

NOTE: The County's report includes ALL types of housing, but my analysis is
limited to single family detached (SFD) homes, as those are a leading
indicator of future enrollment growth for Albemarle County Public Schools. 

During the last twelve months (April 2005-March 2006), SFD building permits
were issued as follows in Albemarle's six magisterial districts:

171 (39%) in White Hall
84 (19.2%) in Scottsville
76 (17.4%) in Samuel Miller
74 (16.9%) in Rivanna
23 (5.3%) in Rio
10 (2.3%) in Jack Jouett

>From my website you can download a historical view of this data by
magisterial district.

For the SFD permits detailed above, 51.8% were in rural areas and 23.3% were
in the Crozet growth area (i.e. not all the White Hall housing shown above
is in Crozet) during the last twelve months.
