Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment information | Segment information Our Homebuilding operations are engaged in the acquisition and development of land primarily for residential purposes within the U.S. and the construction of housing on such land. Home sale revenues for detached and attached homes were $6.5 billion and $996.4 million in 2016, $5.0 billion and $841.5 million in 2015, and $4.8 billion and $885.8 million in 2014, respectively. For reporting purposes, our Homebuilding operations are aggregated into six reportable segments:
Northeast: |  | Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia
Southeast: |  | Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee
Florida: |  | Florida
Midwest: |  | Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio
Texas: |  | Texas
West: |  | Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Washington
We also have a reportable segment for our Financial Services operations, which consist principally of mortgage banking and title operations. The Financial Services segment operates generally in the same markets as the Homebuilding segments. Evaluation of segment performance is generally based on income before income taxes. Each reportable segment generally follows the same accounting policies described in Note 1.
