The chart reveals the trends in the number of owned houses and rented accommodations. The data is for England and Wales during the year 1918 and 2011.
As an overall understanding, at the beginning of the century, a high percentage of families were lodged in self-owned spaces. However, by the end of the period, the trend flipped and saw more households living in leased-out residences. The graph also indicates that the year 1971 was a pivotal point in this changing trend.
The year 1918 had the highest number of private residences, at around 78%. Gradually, this number fell to 59% by the year 1961. Interestingly, in 1971 the number of hired and owned dwellings were at 50%, each. The year 2001 saw the lowest figure in owned houses, however, by 2011, it jumped back to 36%.
Contrastingly, in 1918, families occupying leased out residences were only 22%. In 1939 and 1953, the data did not see any change and was glued at 32%. By 1981, approximately 60% of the population was living as tenants. In 2001, rentend households reached their peak at around 69%. However, in 2011 there was a sudden break in the trend and recorded a dip in the statistics; closing at 64%.
