Home ownership and renting

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

44,478 householdsCensus 2021
Home owners23.8% · 10,582 households
Private renters25.2% · 11,218 households
Social renters47.6% · 21,168 households
Other tenure3.4% · 1,510 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.

44,478 householdsCensus 2021
One-person households32.7% · 14,529 households
Families with dependent children26.8% · 11,925 households
Other single-family households25.9% · 11,527 households
Other household types14.6% · 6,497 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.

108,103 people in the source baseCensus 2021Source comparison: England & Wales
Day-to-day activities limited a lot6.2% · 6,699 people
Day-to-day activities limited a little8.2% · 8,814 people
Not disabled under the Equality Act85.6% · 92,590 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 ↗
