Most of England's housing stock is owner occupied and built before 1919. Among the homes built after 2002, less than two million were owner occupied, about 600,000 were privately rented and approximately 400,000 were social housing. The largest share of social housing was found in buildings built between 1945 and 1980. In 2023, there were around 15.5 million owner occupied households in England.
