In 2023, New York led all states in the United States with the highest population residing in public housing units. The number of residents in assisted houses in New York was more than 300,000, much higher than in other states. Other states with a high number of residents in government-aided accommodations included Pennsylvania and Puerto Rico, with both states having around 100,000 public housing residents. In contrast, Vermont recorded the lowest number of residents in public housing units, at just 562. North Dakota, Wyoming, and Idaho were also some of the states that had comparatively low populations, each reporting fewer than 2,500 people.

There were about 1.07 million units of social housing in Germany in 2023. This was actually the lowest figure on the timeline. Social housing is housing that is owned by the government or local authority, it is rented out to people who receive benefits at a discounted rate compared with other housing in the area.

The number of households occupied by social renters in England from 2000 to 2024 fluctuated from a total of 3.95 million households in 2000 to over four million households in 2024. The purpose built, low-rise flat was by far the most popular type of housing in the social sector in England.

This dataset comes from Pierce County's Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). HMIS is a local information technology system used to collect client-level data and data on the provision of housing and services to homeless individuals and families and persons at risk of homelessness.

Federal and State funders require any Continuum of Care receiving federal and state homeless funds use a locally-administered data system to record and analyze homeless information. To comply with this requirement Pierce County has contracted with Bowman Systems L.L.C. for the use of the ServicePoint HMIS database.

Local authorities must publish details of the value of social housing stock that is held in their Housing Revenue Account. The following social housing stock data must be published:

• valuation data to be listed at postal sector level34 (e.g. PO1 1**), without indicating individual dwelling values, and ensuring that data is not capable of being made disclosive of individual properties, in line with disclosure protocols set out in paragraphs 15 to 18

• valuation data for the dwellings using both Existing Use Value for Social Housing and market value (valued in accordance with guidance35) as at 1 April. This should be based on the authority’s most up to date valuation data at the time of the publication of the information

The valuation data and information must be published in the following format:

• for each postal sector level, the valuation data should be classified within set bands of value. Authorities must set their valuation bands within the general parameters set out in the table below, in light of the local characteristics of the housing market in their area, in order to ensure that valuation data published by all authorities is consistent and clear to understand:

• From £50,000 or less to £99,999 : 6 Bands of £10,000
• From £100,000 to £299,999 : 10 Bands of £20,000
• From £300,000 to £499,999 : 4 Bands of £50,000
• From £500,000 to £999,999 : 5 Bands of £100,000
• From £1,000,000 to £2,999,999 or higher : 5 Bands of £500,000

In the year ending in March 2024, lead tenants from the Black ethnic group made up 7.8% of new social housing lettings and 3.9% of the overall population of England aged 16 and over.

Following large transfers of Social Housing stock from the Public Sector over the past twenty years, Housing Associations are now the major provider of social housing in the UK. The largest own thousands of houses but at the other end of the scale are very small organisations such as ancient Almshouse Charities, each owning a cottage or two and overseen by a part time Chairman or a Secretary.

The legal status and ownership of Housing Associations and Trusts is often complex. In some instances, a single management team may manage two or more Housing Associations which are distinct legal entities, for example one Charitable and one non-Charitable.

Housing Associations vary in the scope of their operations. The largest may cater for all types of tenants requiring public housing, whilst many of the smaller ones may cater for specific groups, for example, elderly residents of a certain parish or retired miners. The YMCAs and Foyers provide housing accommodation for single young people whilst the Abbeyfield Societies are voluntary bodies providing sheltered accommodation or nursing homes for the elderly.

How the data is organised:

Parent/Subsidiary Organisations - Housing Associations are regularly merging and renaming themselves. They are often managed in complex groups, with parent and subsidiaries organisations, some sharing their corporate management. Where there is a shared management team across a group, we list these contacts at the group organisation and not against each subsidiary, in order to avoid duplication.

Principal Contact - One person at each Association is identified as the "Chief Officer". In larger organisations this will normally be the Chief Executive or Director. In smaller Associations, it may be the Secretary or occasionally the Chairman, as requested by each organisation.

Job Functions - In addition to the Chief Officers we list a large number of other management posts. Due to the variety of job titles among Associations, we categorise by job function to identify responsibilities.

Units Owned/Managed - As well as recording the organisational structures, we also record the number of "units" each organisation owns/manages. "Units" can be anything from a detached house to a flat or a room or bed space in a nursing home or hostel.
