The word residential is an adjective. Adjectives are used to describe nouns. Adjectives do not have a plural form.

e.g. "One large (adj) house. / Two large houses." Notice that it is the noun (house) that becomes plural, not the adjective.

Compare:

* The survey covers each residential area. (Singular)

* There will be ten residential areas in the preliminary survey. (Plural)

Singular and plural of related nouns: residence/residences; resident/residents.
