[Massplanners] Question about school-aged children multipliers

Hi Mark,

What were the data sources of the SAC multiplier that you used? One source I
tap is Burchell & Listokin fiscal impact handbook.

Subject: [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,
