Density Calculator for residentially zoned land

Instructions
Enter the size of your site under the column Gross Acres (one acre = 43,560 square feet)
The table will automatically figure the minimum and maximum residential density for your site.
Density is figured in the number of dwelling units per acre (DU/Acre), regardless of type.

Enter square feet here if you don't know the acreage = acres 0.00

* This table assumes Right of Way (ROW) dedication will require 25% of the total developable area.
Actual dedication requirements will vary depending on specific site characteristics.

Please note that the minimum density figure may be superseded by Subdivision Ordinance Section 27
for lots and parcels that are more than double the minimum lot size within the R-1 zone.
The table below will automatically adjust for the "maximum" lot size based on your input above.
