The UK is facing Housing Crisis and there are an estimated 320,000 homeless people in the UK. The rate of homelessness is greater in Northern Ireland than in the rest of the UK. The condition of housing is poorest because, in England, 85,000 households are living in temporary accommodation for example short-term private rentals and temporary social housing. In April 2018, there were 1.11 million households on English local authority waiting lists, down from a peak of just over 1.8 million in 2012. The condition of  homes which  are under a government rating system pose a serious and immediate risk to a person’s health and safety with structural weakness and dampness. It is on average, an annual 788,000 of the 23 million households in England were to be overcrowded in the period between 2016 and 2019.

The problem of hidden households is driven by unaffordable housing because house prices are doubled since 1978  and rent prices are also high as compared with incomes in most regions of England.  The both property and rental prices are much higher in London and south-east England than in other parts of the UK  due to this reason younger  Londoners seeking to own their first home are at a significant disadvantage compared with first-time buyers elsewhere in the UK. Additionally, due to tick population and local economic performance are critical to determining property prices. The urban prices are generally much higher and having a big variations between towns and cities.
