Growth of households will put public services under pressure

摘要

The number of households in England is set to grow by a further 2.2 million by 2021 especially in the capital, according to DCLG projections. London's rate of increase in households from 2011 to 2021 is expected to be double that of the North and the Midlands putting huge pressure on the capital's housing and public services. In the next 10 years the number of households is expected to grow between 5%-10% in almost half of all English local authority districts.
