Eau Claire: 1-3 and 4-Room Houses

One-to-three room houses increased each decade until they peaked in the 1920s and then declined thereafter, hitting an all-time low in the 1950s.  On the other hand, four-room houses with a kitchen, living room, and two bedrooms only appeared with any frequency in the 1920s and especially during the 1940s.
