  • Cumbria Housing Statement 2017 Final
    A shared vision, a single voice for housing in Cumbria Cumbria Housing Statement 2017 Updated October 2017 The Cumbria Housing Group is made up of the six district housing authorities, Cumbria County Council and the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Park Authorities. 1 Introduction This Statement has been produced by the Cumbria Housing Group. By working together with our wider partnerships, including the private and housing association sectors and the Cumbria Local Enterprise Partnership, we can add real value to creating and sustaining homes and communities across Cumbria that drives economic development and meets social needs. The shared vision for housing in Cumbria is: “Working together to drive housing and economic growth, regenerate poor housing and help people to live independently.” This document has been produced to give a clear focus to housing priorities in Cumbria to support investment and other funding opportunities that will add value to make a real difference. Whilst the Statement looks ahead as far as 2030, it will be reviewed on an annual basis. Cumbria in Brief Cumbria is England’s second largest county. It contains the Lake District National Park, part of the Yorkshire Dales National Park and other areas of outstanding natural beauty. It has population of approximately half a million people and is the third sparsest county nationally. Cumbria has a rapidly aging population. Over 60% of wards in Cumbria are classified as rural, and over half of the population live in rural communities. The City of Carlisle is the largest settlement and County Town. Whilst Cumbria has significant investment and growth potential, at present, the median household income is just over £26,000; approximately £3,500 below the national average.
