Residential energy consumption survey: consumption and expenditures, April 1981 through March 1982. Part 1. National data
This report presents data on the US consumption and expenditures for residential use of natural gas, electricity, fuel oil and kerosene, and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) during the year from April 1981 through March 1982. The consumption and expenditures data are based on actual household bills obtained, with the permission of the household, from the companies supplying energy to the household. These data come from the 1981 Residential Energy Consumption Survey (RECS), the fourth in a series of comparable surveys beginning in 1978. Each survey is based on a different sample of households. This summary gives the highlights of a comparison of the findings for the four years. The data cover all types of occupied housing units in the 50 States and the District of Columbia including single-family units, apartments, and mobile homes. For households with indirect energy costs, such as costs that are included in the rent or paid by third parties, the consumption and expenditures are estimated and included in the figures reported here.
