This data sets out the percentage of residents of the Cambridge housing sub-region who are unable to afford housing, based on contemporary income data and housing costs, broken down into percentage for 1, 2 and 3 bedroom homes. The data comes from: SHMA 2013, based on 2011/12 data SHMA 2012, based on 2009/10 data SHMA 2010, based on 2008/9 data SHMA 2009, based on mostly 2007/8 data

The data is all published in chapters of our strategic housing market assessment and are used as part of our calculations around the need for affordable housing, particularly where we need to work out the percentage of in-comers unikely to be able to afford housing via the private market (owned or rented) and thus potentially in need of "sub market" housing products.
