Managing and Updating Housing Data

The Strategic Housing Market Assessment for Leicester and Leicestershire provides an assessment of future housing need and the required mix, size and tenure of households. The assessment will inform the development of planning policies across the affected areas.

The assessment's analysis is based on secondary data which includes information from:

• The 2011 Census
• Demographic projections
• House prices
• Rents
• Income information
• A range of other local, regional and national databases.
