Finding Self Storage in Brooklyn, CT: Everything You Need To Know

If you're searching for self storage in Brooklyn, there are a few things you should keep in mind. Brooklyn 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. In order to give you a better idea of these factors in Brooklyn, we pulled in data from the US Census.

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 Brooklyn, 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 Brooklyn we can get a better idea of the amount of moving activity. The US Census tells us that the metro area population of Brooklyn grew from 8,215 in 2010 to 8,254 in 2014, which is a rate of 0.47% growth over four years.

Housing occupancy and vacancy rates in Brooklyn can help us get a better idea of how much demand there is for living and storage space in Brooklyn and thus the kind of storage prices and availability we should expect to find. Low rates of vacancy in Brooklyn housing could indicate that real estate is in short supply. Self storage units in Brooklyn may then also be in short supply, which means Brooklyn storage unit prices may be higher. The US Census estimates that housing vacancy rates in Brooklyn are at 10.8%, while the occupancy rate is at 89.2%. That's a lower vacancy rate than the average for cities in the United States, and suggests that storage facility vacancy in Brooklyn may also be lower. Low vacancy allows storage facilities to charge higher rent, so a cheap storage unit could be trickier to find in Brooklyn than in other cities.
