five-year continuous residence rule, and what might change
At present, applicants must have lived continuously in Harrow for at least five years to qualify for the Housing Register. The council is reviewing whether this rule should be increased, reduced or remain at five years to balance fairness, local connection, and housing demand.Data from the housing register was analysed to identify which groups might be affected if the residency rule were extended to ten years: Key Findings:Around 17 per cent of current applicants would be affected by an increase from five to ten years.The analysis examined potential impacts by ethnicity and age group.Impact by ethnicity:White Other: 7 per cent of applicants with ten or more years of residence, compared with 11 per cent with five to nine years. This group is likely to be most adversely affected. White British: 14 per cent (ten or more years) compared with 10 per cent (five to nine years), likely to benefit most.Black African and Asian Other: largest overall cohorts, showing no significant positive or negative impact. Impact by age group:Under 45s: 54 per cent (five to nine years) versus 47 per cent (ten or more years) – most negatively affected.Ages 45–49: 12 per cent (five to nine years) versus 14 per cent (ten or more years) – likely to benefit.Ages 65+: 9 per cent (five to nine years) versus 11 per cent (ten or more years) – likely to benefit.Overall, 17 per cent of the register would be affected if the rule were increased to ten years. The White Other and under-45 groups would experience the greatest disadvantage, while the White British and older age groups would likely benefit.
