Housing stock is defined as the total number of dwellings, after taking in to account any losses (such as demolitions, change of use) and gains (usually new build or conversion), but excluding any communal establishments such as residential care homes. These estimates are based on data sourced from the council tax departments of Suffolk’s 7 District and Borough councils, and represent the dwellings known to the Districts and Boroughs at 31st March each year. Section 2 contains the data at both District and parish level for housing stock, and the 1 and 10 year net changes. Section 3 looks at the recent trends in Suffolk’s housing stock. Section 4 presents some additional data and context on second homes, and the current state of the housing market, while section 5 looks at the level of social housing stock in Suffolk. 2 Section 2 – Data County and District Table 1 – Ten Year Profile of the Housing Stock in Suffolk and its Districts and Boroughs Forest Mid St Suffolk Suffolk Babergh Heath Ipswich Suffolk Edmundsbury Coastal Waveney County 2003 36744 24870 52679 37593 43571 54016 52674 302147 2004 36961 24955 53215 38061 44001 54490 53105 304788 2005 37117 25164 53910 38425 44150 55195 53435 307396 2006 37419 25509 54781 39131 44654 55813 53676 310983 2007 37740 26021 55562 39569 45184 56641 53879 314596 2008 38003 26273 56953 40350 45737 57151 54245 318712 2009 38309 26946 57924 40907 46163 57554 54489 322292 2010 38551 27482 58469 41301 46500 57922 54715 324940 2011 38782 27865 58891 41548 46804 58032 54932 326854 2012 39043 28514 59208 41925 46964 58286 55089 329029 Change 261 649 317 377 160 254 157 2175 11-12 0.67% 2.28% 0.54% 0.90% 0.34% 0.44% 0.28% 0.66% Change 2299 3644 6529 4332 3393 4270 2415 26882 03-12 5.9% 12.8% 11.0% 10.3% 7.2% 7.3% 4.4% 8.2% Figure 1 – County and District Housing Stock Totals 2003-2012 60000 55000 50000 45000 40000 35000 30000 25000 20000 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 Ipswich Suffolk Coastal Waveney St Edmundsbury Mid Suffolk Babergh Forest Heath 3 Figure 2 – County and District Housing Stock Changes 2003-2012 1600 1400 1200 1000 800 600 Change in Stock 400 200 0 Change Change Change Change Change Change Change Change Change 03-04 04-05 05-06 06-07 07-08 08-09 09-10 10-11 11-12 Babergh Forest Heath Ipswich Mid Suffolk St Edmundsbury Suffolk Coastal Waveney 4 Babergh Table 2 – Babergh Housing Stock Totals 2003-2012 by Parish 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 Change 2011-12 Change 2003-12 Acton 755 757 758 759 759 770 768 768 770 774 4 0.5% 19 2.5% Aldham 77 77 77 77 77 77 77 77 76 76 0 0% -1 -1.3% Alpheton 99 101 102 101 101 101 103 103 104 104 0 0% 5 4.8% Arwarton 54 52 55 56 56 56 55 55 55 57 2 4% 3 5.3% Assington 165 165 164 165 165 167 169 172 172 173 1 1% 8 4.6% Belstead 92 91 91 92 91 91 94 93 92 93 1 1% 1 1.1% Bentley 338 339 341 344 345 345 344 345 344 344 0 0% 6 1.7% Bildeston 447 447 459 457 464 464 479 481 481 491 10 2% 44 9.0% Boxford 535 536 536 542 543 543 541 543 543 546 3 1% 11 2.0% Boxted 51 51 51 51 51 52 52 52 52 51 -1 -2% 0 0.0% Brantham 1071 1070 1068 1071 1075 1076 1075 1077 1086 1086 0 0% 15 1.4% Brent Eleigh 76 77 80 80 80 81 81 81 81 81 0 0% 5 6.2% Brettenham 116 115 115 115 115 115 114 114 117 119 2 2% 3 2.5% Bures St. Mary 391 391 391 394 405 411 414 414 415 415 0 0% 24 5.8% Burstall 86 87 87 87 88 88 88 88 88 87 -1 -1% 1 1.1% Capel St. Mary 1172 1171 1170 1178 1177 1181 1186 1189 1190 1214 24 2% 42 3.5% Chattisham 65 67 66 66 65 67 69 69 69 68 -1 -1% 3 4.4% Chelmondiston 512 514 512 510 511 510 513 517 516 517 1 0% 5 1.0% Chelsworth 67 68 67 67 68 68 69 69 69 69 0 0% 2 2.9% Chilton 142 143 142 142 148 148 148 148 148 148 0 0% 6 4.1% Cockfield 361 364 364 368 367 373 388 390 392 394 2 1% 33 8.4% Copdock and Washbrook 470 470 470 471 471 471 470 472 472 475 3 1% 5 1.1% East Bergholt 1160 1161 1162 1165 1171 1175 1171 1175 1181 1175 -6 -1% 15 1.3% Edwardstone 149 150 154 155 155 154 154 154 154 154 0 0% 5 3.2% Elmsett 303 305 308 320 331 335 334 336 337 337 0 0% 34 10.1% Freston 56 56 56 55 55 55 55 55 54 53 -1 -2% -3 -5.7% Glemsford 1434 1445 1455 1467 1481 1491 1495 1500 1506 1514 8 1% 80 5.3% Great Cornard 3177 3188 3188 3185 3256 3350 3463 3539 3639 3757 118 3% 580 15.4% Great Waldingfield 613 614 615 616 617 619 623 623 623 650 27 4% 37 5.7% Groton 97 97 97 112 112 111 112 114 113 114 1 1% 17 14.9% Hadleigh 3317 3356 3404 3477 3524 3543 3554 3561 3564 3569 5 0% 252 7.1% Harkstead 133 132 132 133 131 131 131 133 131 132 1 1% -1 -0.8% Hartest 198 198 198 198 200 201 202 204 207 207 0 0% 9 4.3% Higham 71 71 73 72 72 72 72 72 72 72 0 0% 1 1.4%
