Findings include:
there are an estimated 382,618 people who are now homeless in England, including 175,025 children.
this represents an 8% increase (28,602 people) in just a year, and means that at least one in 153 people in England are homeless (65 per 10,000 population).
there are 202,587 people homeless in London, which is the equivalent of one in 45 people. More than half of all people who are homeless in England are from London.
the North West (15%), Yorkshire and the Humber (11%) and the West Midlands (11%) have seen the largest increases in homelessness this year.
the majority (64%) of households in temporary accommodation are families with dependent children and, of these, lone mothers are disproportionately over-represented.
by contrast, people included in the annual rough sleeping snapshot are much more likely to be male (85% of all those people whose gender is recorded), and single people in hostels are overwhelmingly male.
people of colour are more likely to be recorded as homeless. Despite making up just 5% of the overall population, black people make up 23% of the main applicants from households in temporary accommodation.
