A number of residences were also built between 1940 and 1969.
Glendale has a 9.8% vacancy rate, which is well above average compared to other U.S. neighborhoods (higher than 62.7% of American neighborhoods).

Either way, if you live here year round, you will find many of the homes or apartments are empty for all or a portion of the year.
