U.S. Housing Starts (millions)

Historically, every 100,000 housing starts equates to
~1.86 billion board feet (BBF) of lumber production in
North America.
In 2022, the U.S. South produced 22.1 BBF, or ~38% of
total North American production.
Based on the U.S. South's increased share of North
American production, a decline in housing to:
1.29mm units (consensus) = 20.3 BBF of production
1.11mm units 19.0 BBF of production (2005 equivalent)
The U.S. South's advantageous cost position and significantly increased market share of lumber
production mitigates the risk of a housing downturn.
