Finding Self Storage in Brookfield, WI: Everything You Need To Know

Just starting your Brookfield self storage search? There are a few things you should know. The pricing and availability of storage units in Brookfield will depend on several factors such as the real estate climate, the number of people moving into or throughout the area, housing conditions in the city, and the general wealth and prosperity of the area. We used US Census data on Brookfield to give you a better idea of these factors.

Self storage is commonly used as a secure place to store one's belongings when moving into a new home. If there's a high amount of moving activity in Brookfield, that could affect storage unit pricing and availability. A city with a high amount of moving activity should see substantial changes in population, so by looking at population data for Brookfield we can get a better idea of the amount of moving activity. The US Census tells us that the metro area population of Brookfield grew from 37,932 in 2010 to 37,982 in 2014, which is a rate of 0.13% growth over four years.

Vacancy and occupancy rates in the Brookfield housing market can help us gauge the demand for living space and thus self-storage space in Brookfield, and may hint at storage availability and pricing. If housing occupancy rates in Brookfield are high, it's probably safe to assume that storage facility occupancy rates in Brookfield are also high, which would push unit prices up. According to US Census estimates, 95.2% of housing units in Brookfield are occupied, while the vacancy rate is at 4.8%. The average occupancy rate in US cities is approximately 89%, which is lower than the rate in Brookfield, suggesting that storage unit inventory might also be tighter in Brookfield. With fewer units available, storage facilities in Brookfield may charge higher prices.
