Series details: CRDA/51

The English House Condition Survey is a dwelling-based survey based on a sample of 12,000 properties across England, comprising household details and assessments of physical condition of the property. The information was used to measure the changing condition of housing stock feeding into reserve allocation for local authorities and registered social landlords, housing policy and development. The English House Condition Surveys provide Government Departments with a major source of information to assist in the development and monitoring of policies directed towards the repair and improvement of housing stock, and improvement of energy efficiency. The survey has been carried out every five years since 1967. From 2002, it will run continuously.
