England’s housing market –

how many of us own, rent or have a mortgage?

Hey, I know I stray off the beaten track of information management, careers information (in its broadest sense) and the deliberately non-work-related stuff in the irregular series but housing?

Yes. Careers guidance is not only about jobs and the learning that might lead to them, it’s also about lifestyles. If you have no home then the thought of a job is fairly far from your mind, likewise if you have poor health, dependent relatives and so on. Any adviser worth his or her salt knows this, therefore, I bring you information about housing trends from Guardian Society.

The latest data shows that fewer people than ever are buying their own home. Find out how the English housing market has changed

Lots of data and an interactive chart here
