propertytalk Live! - Rural homelessness rockets by 25% as downturn hits the countryside hard
The number of people accepted as homeless in rural areas has rocketed by 25% in the past year – as demand for affordable homes stands at record levels.
New figures also reveal that homelessness in the countryside has increased at a faster rate than in urban areas, which recorded an 11 % increase.
The National Housing Federation, which represents England’s housing associations, said the problem could get even worse as the supply of affordable homes fails to keep up with huge waiting lists in rural areas.
A total of 7,600 people (3,044 households) were registered as homeless in rural areas in 2010. This was up from 6,100 people (2,431 households) the previous year, and was the first increase since 2007.
