Loaded evidence sources

Explore UK property data

Counts, dates, geography and original publishers.

Counts overlap. They describe records and observations, not a single total number of UK homes.

Working standard

Evidence before estimates.

Every published number carries a definition, a date and a boundary around what it cannot prove.
