Average distauce between alternate nests use by individuals was 45 ± 5 m (range = 4-162 m).

Management goals for the red tree vole are generally compatible with those for the threatened northern spotted owl and other late-successional forest species. USDI 2000) subdivided the range of the red tree vole into three zones, referred to as the Northern Mesic, Mesic, and Xeric Zones. Estimates of mean (± SE) and median home range size were 1,732 ± 366 m2 and 760 m2, respectively (range = 36-10,308 m 2).

Reported to be rare to uncommon throughout its range, but the difficulty of locating nests and capturing individuals makes abundance hard to assess.
