Banking on Vacancy: Homelessness and Real Estate Speculation

[vizual-statistix]

When it comes to naming streets, cities frequently use the default suffix: St. If they’re feeling a tad adventurous, maybe they’ll thrown in an Ave or Dr. If they’re really thinking outside the box, perhaps they’ll come up with a Ter or Cir. It can get pretty crazy.

To put this all into perspective, I’ve plotted the suffix distributions as a percentage of all streets for six cities. Because I was concerned with naming conventions, street length is not considered; a street that is two blocks long holds the same weight as one that is five blocks. Congratulations to Chicago for having more avenues than streets!
