The ONS publishes both rental price and rental affordability indexes at local authority and regional levels respectively, and the department publishes data on the number of unoccupied dwellings, as defined for council tax purposes, at local authority level. Data is not available at parliamentary constituency level.
The provision of affordable housing is part of the Government's plan to build more homes and provide aspiring homeowners with a step onto the housing ladder. Our £11.5 billion Affordable Homes Programme will deliver thousands of affordable homes for both rent and to buy right across the country.
