The CDRC Residential Property Counts dataset provides yearly small area estimates (1997-2022) of geolocated 'active' residential properties in the UK.
Acquiring historical lifecycle information about individual properties in the UK poses challenges, as most data providers primarily focus on monitoring 'active' properties for facilitating mail and package deliveries around the country.
The CDRC Residential Property Counts uses a large dataset tracing the names and addresses of more than one billion individuals dating back to 1997 (LCRs: Linked Consumer Registers) to calibrate property lifecycle information within an authoritative geolocated address and property dataset. The CDRC Residential Property Counts data allow researchers to take a temporal perspective (limited to the years pertaining to 1997-2022) on, for instance, the geography and development of the residential housing stock in the UK. Potential applications include assessing changes in geography and levels of vulnerability in the context of extreme weather events like droughts and floods at the small area level.
Please note that evidence of a research licence for the Ordnance Survey’s Address Base Premium product is required when applying to access this Secure dataset. No such restrictions apply to the Safeguarded which has been aggregated to LSOA geography with small counts masked. Please see the separate data record (linked below) for the Safeguarded version.
