Notes

Dwellings owned by other public bodies, at the 1st of April, as councils return them. MHCLG warns that some councils' figures rest on partial information, so a fall may reflect poorer data rather than fewer homes.
MHCLG estimates each council's dwellings at the 31st of March from the census and each year's net additional homes. Its figures are given to the dwelling but should not be taken as accurate to it, and the latest years are provisional, revised as later census counts come in.
MHCLG's table still gives Barnsley and Sheffield under the codes they had before part of Barnsley moved into Sheffield on the 1st of April 2025, and they are shown so.
