parcel survey

To help document the market conditions in the study area and track the changes over time, a property survey was conducted to document the condition of 3,219 study area parcels. Building conditions surveyed the basic exterior physical condition and represent a “snapshot” of the overall study area. This survey is heavily based on the Wells Fargo Regional Foundation (WFRF) Survey to allow for comparison against survey results of other neighborhood surveys completed through WFRF planning processes. To ensure that all surveys are consistently measuring the conditions and quality of the parcels, Reinvestment Fund has defined the terms for clarification.

Approximately 24% of study area parcels are in poor condition. Most are located along the Brandywine Creek and industrial areas near the rail line.
