Homelessness Statistics for 2021-22 are available here which includes data on the declared sexual identity of the main applicant in households owed statutory homelessness prevention and relief duties. The department does not publish data on sexual identity by age of the applicant. We do not publish a breakdown of the ‘other’ category to protect identification of individuals in categories with small numbers.
