London Is The Capital Of Homelessness

London

London has England’s highest homelessness rate despite being one of the wealthiest parts of the country, a latest report has said.

A new analysis by charity Shelter also placed Luton, Brighton and Birmingham high on the list, and put the country’s total at 255,000.

Shelter used government statistics, freedom of information requests, and other published homelessness data to compile the estimate, calling it a “bleak and desperate picture”.

In the London borough of Westminster 1 in 25 people were without a home. Newham had the second highest rate, at 1 in 27, then Haringey, at 1 in 28, then Kensington and Chelsea, at 1 in 30.
