Dwelling Age statistics for residential properties based on the Assessors and Taxation (A&amp;amp;T) Database from the 2004 edition of Maryland Property View (contains records for properties built in 2005).  Residential dwellings were identified using the land use field (LU) in the A&amp;amp;T Database and included: commercial condominium (CC), commercial residential (CR), apartments (M), residential (R), residential commercial (RC), town house (TH), and residential condominium (U).  Dwelling age was calculated by subtracting the year built (YEARBLT) in the A&amp;amp;T Database from 2005.  Statistics include median, mean, minimum, maximum, standard deviation, along with the number of observations for each block group and the percent of these observations that were valid.  Only valid observations were used to compute statistics.
