2013 Round Household Projections for London with Variant Scenarios

The 2013 round of household projections from the Greater London Authority (GLA) includes multiple projection variants. These projections, which have been superseded, were used to inform the Strategic Housing Market Assessment and Further Alterations to the London Plan. The data includes trend-based and development-linked projections, with household formation rates extrapolated to 2041.

Use Cases

• Compare housing demand scenarios based on the Central, High, and Low migration variant projections.
• Model future household growth linked to development trajectories from the 2013 Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment.
• Analyze the impact of extrapolated DCLG household formation rates on long-term projections to 2041.

Strengths

• Includes three distinct trend-based projection variants (Central, High, Low) for scenario analysis.
• Projections were used to inform official strategic documents like the SHMA and FALP.
• Projection horizon extends to 2041, providing a long-term view.

Limitations

• The dataset has been superseded, as noted by the author, and is not the latest projection.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
