Council Housing Demand by Bedroom Type
See notes
Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, I am requesting the following information regarding housing demand on your council waiting list as of 1st November 2024:
1. The number of applicants on your council housing waiting list by property type:
• Accessible property: 10
• 1-bed property: 582
• 2-bed property: 266
• 3-bed property: 283
• 4-bed property: 63
• 5+ bed property: 10
2. The average waiting time for each property type listed below:
• Accessible property
• 1-bed property
• 2-bed property
• 3-bed property
• 4-bed property
• 5+ bed property
We do not provide average wait times on the housing register as an individual waitlist is created for each void property which comes available which is based upon property/ landlord requirements such as age, bedroom size, property type, type of rent etc. We start with all eligible applicants for each property in Band 1 and if there are no suitable households to nominate, we will then go to Band 2 and so on.
If possible, please provide additional insights or typical ranges for waiting times based on priority needs or location preferences.
As above
