Local context

About this constituency

Bognor Regis and Littlehampton is a West Sussex coastal constituency within Arun. It includes Bognor Regis and Littlehampton as its two largest towns, together with Felpham, Middleton-on-Sea, Rustington, Aldwick and Yapton. Much of the constituency follows the English Channel coast, producing a largely urban and suburban strip of seaside communities. Bognor Regis and Littlehampton each have their own town centres, while the settlements between and around them are generally lower-density residential areas. Inland from the coast, the seat includes smaller areas of open countryside and villages. The result is a constituency focused strongly on the coastal plain rather than the South Downs farther north.

Description last reviewed 30 August 2026.

Home ownership and renting

Housing tenure shows how households in this constituency described their home at the most recent census.

47,273 householdsCensus 2021
Home owners67.4% · 31,859 households
Private renters21.1% · 9,954 households
Social renters10.3% · 4,865 households
Other tenure1.3% · 595 households

“Other tenure” combines shared ownership and households recorded as living rent free.

Housing-tenure figures come from the most recent census: 2021 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and 2022 in Scotland. View housing-tenure source ↗

Household composition

A broad view of household types in this constituency. Project Open Gov uses the four broad groups supplied by the Commons Library so the presentation remains consistent across the UK.

47,276 householdsCensus 2021
One-person households32.8% · 15,483 households
Families with dependent children23.3% · 11,037 households
Other single-family households39.5% · 18,662 households
Other household types4.4% · 2,094 households

Household-composition figures come from the Commons Library constituency dataset. The source uses census data and Project Open Gov displays its broad household groups rather than attempting to harmonise the detailed categories itself. View household-composition source ↗

Disability and day-to-day activities

The source records whether day-to-day activities are limited and uses separate person-level tables for England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

107,059 people in the source baseCensus 2021Source comparison: England & Wales
Day-to-day activities limited a lot8.3% · 8,910 people
Day-to-day activities limited a little12.1% · 12,903 people
Not disabled under the Equality Act79.6% · 85,246 people

Comparison note: the workbook uses different source terminology across the UK: England & Wales uses “Disabled under the Equality Act”, while Scotland and Northern Ireland use “Disabled” / “Non-disabled”. Project Open Gov therefore preserves the source categories and does not present them as one single like-for-like UK legal definition.

Disability figures come from the Commons Library constituency workbook. This profile uses the person-level tables only; the workbook also contains separate household-level disability tables which are not used here. View disability source ↗
