Source and method
Source: Federal Statistical Office (FSO), survey of vacant dwellings (Leerwohnungszählung), via stats.swiss. The dwelling stock is estimated from the published counts and rates.
House type, tenure and dwelling age are three independent breakdowns of the same vacant dwellings; they cannot be combined (there is no "rented new dwelling" figure).
