Residential Development
Almost half of the dwellings in Sherwood were built between the end of World War II and 1960. Just over six out of every ten residences (63%) are single-family dwellings. Another 34% are apartments in low-rise buildings with fewer than five stories. Most of the remaining dwellings are duplexes. Just over half of the residences (56%) are owner-occupied, with the remainder being rented.

Famous quotes containing the words residential and/or development:
“[The Republicans] offer ... a detailed agenda for national renewal.... [On] reducing illegitimacy ... the state will use ... funds for programs to reduce out-of-wedlock pregnancies, to promote adoption, to establish and operate children’s group homes, to establish and operate residential group homes for unwed mothers, or for any purpose the state deems appropriate. None of the taxpayer funds may be used for abortion services or abortion counseling.”
—Newt Gingrich (b. 1943)
“Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
