[Mark Archambault]

Thanks to everyone who has replied and will be replying on this question.

The multipliers are coming in quite low, as this Abington project shows.

Best wishes,

Abington as well.

We just got the new master plan for Union Point and they project 76 school children in about 3500 units.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Massplanners] Question about school-aged children multipliers

Hello MassPlanners,

Many years ago, I prepared several community and fiscal impact studies that used multipliers for the average number of school-aged children (SAC) for various styles of housing.

I recall that for the town I was working in, that the SAC multiplier for single-family homes then was about .75, for duplexes it was about .60 and for multi-family residential was about .55, or something in that range.

I am looking for currently accepted multipliers for mixed-use developments with apartments above commercial space, to be exact.  I guess that would fall under multi-family greater than a duplex.

Any examples of numbers you may have recently used would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Mark Archambault, AICP
