Abstract
Social housing across Western Europe has become significantly more residualised as
governments concentrate on helping vulnerable households. Many countries are trying to
reduce the concentrations of deprivation by building for a wider range of households and
tenures. In England this policy has two main strands: (i) including other tenures when
regenerating areas originally built as mono-tenure social housing estates and (ii) introducing
social rented and low cost homeownership into new private market developments through
planning obligations. By examining where new social housing and low cost home ownership
homes have been built and who moves into them, this paper examines whether these
policies achieve social mix and reduce spatial concentrations of deprivation. The evidence
suggests that new housing association development has enabled some vulnerable
households to live in areas which are not deprived, while some better off households have
moved into more deprived areas. But these trends have not been sufficient to stem
increases in deprivation in the most deprived areas.
