Field fill rates in North Carolina

The share of residential parcels in North Carolina on which each field is populated. Owner name, mailing address, lot size, assessed value and coordinates are filled on effectively every parcel nationally and are omitted. The structure fields are the ones that vary, because they come from county field cards that not every county publishes.

Denominator: parcels with a residential land use code. Fill rates on all parcels, including vacant land and commercial, are lower; on parcels with a building they are higher and the denominator varies by state. We use residential throughout so states compare.

What the North Carolina file is used for

  • Loading the state into a warehouse or product under a bulk license
  • Owner and mailing-address appends for North Carolina addresses
  • Insurance underwriting inputs where the structure fields are filled
  • Purchase, refinance and new-homeowner triggers from the recorder side of the file

North Carolina sits near the national pattern: the basic characteristics are well covered and the structure codes are filled on a majority but not all parcels.
