Right, time to whet your appetite with some of the fab new #housing data from the #LondonsPovertyProfile.
1) #affordability. There is no #London borough where a *one-bed* flat costs below the benchmark of 30% of median gross income. #NotAffordable.

2) #RoughSleeping There has been a big rise in all groups rough sleeping in #London. This was a problem that was massively smaller. And then it wasn& #39;t any more. https://www.trustforlondon.org.uk/data/topics/housing/">https://www.trustforlondon.org.uk/data/topi...
3) #HiddenHomeless There are 6 times as many #London households in #TemporaryAccommodation as #RoughSleepers. While they might have a roof over their head, it& #39;s not #home. ( #COVID19 is also showing us how unsafe some of this accommodation is). #LondonsPovertyProfile
4) I say the data& #39;s fab. It is incredibly useful. But it also shows how big the challenge we faced was, even before the current crisis. So let& #39;s use it, tell stories, set a benchmark. But let& #39;s also believe we can - and must - do much better. https://www.trustforlondon.org.uk/data/topics/housing/">https://www.trustforlondon.org.uk/data/topi...
