Data: Affordable homes data comes from Live tables on affordable housing supply published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government. On this chart, we present the data from Affordable housing supply open data. We use figures for completions, and group by date, tenure and local authority. This is equivalent to Table 1000: additional affordable homes provided by type of scheme, England. The data processing pipeline is published openly.

This chart shows the number of housing units (bed spaces) provided in addition to the exisiting afforable housing stock. It is well-worth reading the Affordable housing supply statistics bulletin for more detailed information. For definitions of what counts as affordable housing, see Fact Sheet 9: What is Afforable housing?

Notes

  1. Intermediate rent includes London Living Rent from 2017-18
  2. From 2020/21, it is not possible to break down units between Social Rent and London Affordable Rent funded through some GLA schemes. When this happens they will be counted against Social Rent.
  3. Shared Ownership figures for 2014-15 and 2015-16 are based on Homes England and the GLA figures only. Shared ownership units funded by other means are counted as affordable home ownership. Prior to 2014-15, all shared ownership units are counted as affordable home ownership.

Data: Net additional dwellings data come from Table 122 and Table 118 of the live tables on net supply of housing. Published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.

Notes: On the chart, data points are set to the end date of the time period. Each year covers April to March. There are 16 data notes which can be viewed in the ODF file for Table 122. The three most recent are:

  1. The 2017-18 published figure for Thanet has been manually adjusted by DLUHC to remove 84 units incorrectly included in the raw data by the authority. These units were empty homes returning to use and were removed as they did not meet the definition of a net additional dwelling.
  2. Net additions for Isles of Scilly are negative for 2021-22 since it is a small local authority area with very limited development in this year.
  3. Figures for the following local authorities were not submitted in 2022-23 so were imputed: Telford and Wrekin UA, Wiltshire UA and Ribble Valley.
