There are a few things you should know about Brazil self storage before you begin your search. Brazil storage unit prices and availability are closely related to things like real estate prices, the type of housing available in the area, the city's wealth, and whether or not many people are moving to the area. Using US Census data, we've pieced together a better picture of those factors as they relate to self storage in Brazil.
One of the primary uses of self storage is as a safe place to keep your things between moving homes. If many people are moving to or from Brazil, prices could be higher and availability lower. We can get a good idea of whether or not many people are moving to or from Brazil by looking at the change in population. The US Census tells us that the metro area population of Brazil grew from 8,065 in 2010 to 8,114 in 2014, which is a rate of 0.61% growth over four years.
Housing occupancy and vacancy rates in Brazil can help us get a better idea of how much demand there is for living and storage space in Brazil and thus the kind of storage prices and availability we should expect to find. Low rates of vacancy in Brazil housing could indicate that real estate is in short supply. Self storage units in Brazil may then also be in short supply, which means Brazil storage unit prices may be higher. According to US Census estimates, 88% of housing units in Brazil are occupied, while the vacancy rate is at 12%. That's a lower vacancy rate than the average for cities in the United States, and suggests that storage facility vacancy in Brazil may also be lower. Low vacancy allows storage facilities to charge higher rent, so a cheap storage unit could be trickier to find in Brazil than in other cities.
