In August 2018 the 成人快手 Shared Data Unit reported house-building across half of England was slower than it had been before the financial crash.
Our analysis revealed almost a decade on from the 2008 crisis, some 52% of councils saw fewer homes built in the past year than in the year leading up to the crisis.
80% of council areas (267 out of 333 with comparable data) saw fewer homes built annually than the government estimated they needed.
