■ Large related households, both renters and homeowners, show the highest rates of housing problems. Among large related households with incomes below 30% of median, 94% of renters and 90% of homeowners experienced problems. Among all large related households in the State, 71 % of renters and 59% of owners experienced problems. (Table A -2) • Housing affordability is a problem. Nearly one -third (32 %) of Hawai 'i 's households were cost - burdened, with housing costs that exceed 30% of their income. 30% ofall owners and 35% of all renters were cost - burdened. Data from CHAS 2000 was analyzed to determine if racial or ethnic groups experienced a disproportionately greater need for any income category in comparison to the needs of that category as a whole. HUD considers disproportionately greater need to exist when the percentage of persons in a category of need who are members of a particular racial or ethnic group is at least ten percentage points higher than the percentage of persons in the category as a whole. Table A -3, in Appendix "A ", demonstrates that there is no disproportionate need between Hispanic; White, Nora- Hispanic; Black, Non Hispanic; and "Other " households in the State of Hawaii. The extent of crowding (defined as 1.01 or more persons per room) decreased from 22 percent in 1992 to 8 percent in 2006 (see Table IV-2). This downward trend is anticipated to continue as household sizes decrease, but may change with any prolonged economic downturn. The statewide percentage of households that were overcrowded or doubled up (defined as multiple families in one household) also decreased from 30 percent in 1992 to 15 percent in 2006 Table IV -2: Household Composition and Crowding by County, 1992,1997, 2003 2006 County Year Tata1 Households Crowding Inldicato Percerna overcrowded pmoRr or snore per i'oawa Pereent of households that are overcrowded or doubled MK Honolulu 1992 247,349 23% 32 % 1997 272,234 11% 27% 2003 292,003 10% 23% 2006 303,149 8% 15% Maui 1992 34,266 27% 26% 1887 39,251 10% 25916 2003 43,687 110/0 18% 2006 49,484 8% 15a /o Hawari 1992 59,789 19% 26% 1997 46,271 8% 24% 2003 54,644 7i6 18% 2006 61,213 7% 16% Kauai 19920 16,981 1 Ma 26% 1997 18,817 9% 25% 2003 20,260 6% 21% 2006 i 21,971 7.0 16% Total 1992 338,385 22% 30% 1997 376,574 10% 27% 2003 410,794 10% 22% 2006 435,818 8% 15% 2010 -14 CP Find 24 • •
