This statistical release presents the Accredited Official Statistics on the stock owned by local authority registered providers in England on 31 March 2024. Based on data from the Regulator of Social Housing’s Local Authority Data Return (LADR) it provides details of local authority registered provider (LARP) owned stock and details rents reported for low cost rental stock (social and Affordable Rents).

The release comprises a briefing note, a dynamic look-up tool (Excel based) allowing users to view details of stock in individual local authority areas and regions, additional data tables, raw data from the LADR and technical documentation.

The statistics derived from the LADR data and published as local authority registered provider social housing stock and rents in England are considered by the United Kingdom Statistics Authority’s regulatory arm – the Office for Statistics Regulation – to have met the highest standards of trustworthiness, quality and public value, and are considered an Accredited Official Statistic. For more information see the data quality and methodology note.

The responsible statistician for this statistical release was Amanda Hall. The lead official was Will Perry.

These statistics are based on data from the LADR. This return, which was collected by the RSH for the first time in 2020, collects data on stock size, types, location and rents as at 31 March. All registered Local Authority providers of social housing in England are required to complete the LADR, providing the regulator with data on stock and rent levels in order that it may regulate social housing rents.

Prior to 2020 the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), published similar statistics on stock and rents for Local Authorities based on data collected through their Local Authority Housing Statistic. The differences in collection methodology between the LADR and LAHS and the statistical methodology employed between MHCLG and RSH statistical releases are explored in detail in the technical notes.
