  • The difference in newly homeless households by borough is one of the starkest on this site. The proportion of households accepted as homeless in Tower Hamlets is 8 times higher than in Merton, Harrow or Camden.
    • Homelessness acceptances came down in most boroughs between 2007/8 and 2009-10.
    • The numbers accepted as homeless depend on different boroughs' different local policies. These figures should not therefore be seen as accurately reflecting the levels of new homelessness in each borough.
