Residential energy uses. [1950, 1960, 1970]
Information on the changing patterns of energy use by American households is presented. The historical data on which the maps and charts are based appear in Volume 1 of the 1950, 1960, and 1970 Censuses of Housing. The 1975 data were collected in the Annual Housing Survey, Series H-150. Nine charts depict residential uses of energy. Data are presented in some charts by geographic regions, in others for the Nation as a whole; for some subjects, data from past censuses as well as current surveys show historical trends. Three color-coded maps (by county) illustrate the trend in house heating fuel for census years 1950, 1960, and 1970. The changes in the geographic distribution of home heating fuel use are shown.
