This dataset provides 2001 Census estimates that classify households in England and Wales by tenure and household size by number of rooms. The estimates are as at census day, 29 April 2001.

The terms used to describe tenure are defined as: 
Owned: either owned outright, owned with a mortgage or loan, or paying part rent and part mortgage (shared ownership).
Other social rented includes rented from Registered Social Landlord, Housing association, Housing Co-operative and Charitable Trust.
Private rented: renting from a private landlord or letting agency, employer of a household member, or relative or friend of a household member or other person.

'Living rent free' could include households that are living in accommodation other than private rented.

The number of rooms available to the household excludes bathrooms, toilets, halls or landings and rooms that can only be used for storage. It also does not include any rooms shared with another household such as a shared kitchen.
