This publication looks at London's older residents in depth, and the extent to which London is meeting their housing needs.
London is often seen as a ‘young person’s city’. Yet the fastest growing age group in the city over the next 10 years is expected to be Londoners aged over 65.
Meeting the housing requirements of this growing group presents some unique challenges, on top of the well-documented complexities of London’s housing market.
To help us better understand these challenges, this publication builds a picture of who London’s older residents are, where they live and whether London is on track to provide good, affordable, and appropriate homes for this growing age group in 2030.
