This page details our housing strategies and the research that informs them. Research is carried out locally by us, and nationally by other organisations.
The purpose of the Housing Strategy is to guide local action - to assess the current and future balance of housing supply and demand, the working of the housing market, the impact of local housing conditions on local people's lives and on the achievement of other social goals and to plan effective intervention.
Our 2009-2014 Housing Strategy sets out our housing priorities for the next five years.

People in South Derbyshire are increasingly unable to secure adequate accommodation for themselves and their families.
To assist developers and the like, the council has adopted an "Affordable Housing Guidance" which provides a single reference point with the aim of providing clarity on the council's approach to affordable housing in the district. It is available in the related documents section.
