In the foregoing table the native-born households report a lower average rent payment each month per apartment and per room, but a higher payment per person, than do the foreign-born, indicating, owing to the higher rent payment per person, less crowding in the native than in the foreign-born households. The most significant fact disclosed by the table is the more favorable showing made by the native negro than the native white, the average rent paid by the former per room and per person being higher than that paid by the latter. Among the households whose heads were foreign-born, the worst showing is made by the Bulgarians, the average rent payment per month per person being only 60 cents. The showing of the Macedonian households is not much better, their rent payment per month per person being only 78 cents. The highest average rent per month per person is paid by the French households, followed by the Polish, North Italian, Scotch, South Italian, Greek, and Slovak households in the order mentioned.

The range in monthly rent payments per apartment is exhibited by the table following, which shows, by general nativity and race of head of household, the percentage of households paying each specified rent per month per apartment.

[blocks in formation]

In the above table a bare majority of the 525 households studied pay less than $5, although only 6.3 per cent as much as $7.50. The majority of the foreign-born pay $5 or over, but only 7.6 per cent pay $7.50 or over. Of the individual races studied, the majority of the native-born negroes, South Italians, and Slovaks, and large proportions of the Bulgarians and French, pay less than $5. Only 9.4 per cent of the Greeks pay less than $5, but on the other hand, only 6.2 per cent pay as much as $7.50. All the Bulgarians pay less than $7.50 and all the Slovaks and native-born negroes less than $10. The following table shows, by general nativity and race of head of household, the percentage of households paying each specified rent per month per room.

Table 691.-Number and per cent of households keeping boarders or lodgers, by general nativity and race of head of household.

a Not computed, owing to small number involved.

In the table above it is seen that a much greater tendency toward the keeping of boarders or lodgers is shown by the households whose heads were foreign-born than by those whose heads were of native birth, 9.5 per cent of the former, as contrasted with only 3.8 per cent of the latter, having boarders or lodgers. None of the native whites born of native father in the eleven households shown have boarders or lodgers. Among the households whose heads were foreign-born, the largest proportion of boarders or lodgers is exhibited by the French, followed closely by the Slovaks and Bulgarians.

The table next presented shows, by general nativity and race of head of household, the average number of boarders or lodgers per household. The averages are based (1) on the total number of households and (2) on the number having boarders or lodgers.
