Mean = 10.9

Median = 11.5

Mode = 6.8 (smallest of multiple modes) Each data point was different, so technically there were 20 modes.

Range = 8.3 (6.8 to 15.1)

Describe what was found. Rental vacancy rates ranged from 6.8% to 15.1%, with a mean vacancy rate of 10.9%. No two states had the same vacancy rate, therefore an accurate assessment of the mode was not possible. The Median vacancy rate across states was 11.5%.
