Latest figures from the CLG show that 78,180 households
were living in temporary accommodation on 30 June 2017 (these households
included 120,170 children or expected children). This is up 7% on a year
earlier, and up 63% on the low of 48,010 at 31 December 2010. Between 1 April
and 30 June 2017 local authorities accepted 14,400 households as being
statutorily homeless - i.e. households owed a statutory duty to secure
accommodation as a result of being unintentionally homeless and deemed to be in
priority need. This was down by 1% on the previous quarter and down 5% on the
same quarter last year. Read more on the ARCH website.
