Let's delve into the fascinating world of
British housing trends and statistics. Have you ever pondered over the average time
British people stay in their homes? This graphic reveals the answer!
As expected,
those in private rented accommodation stop for the least time,
at 4.3 years.
Those
buying a home with a mortgage tend to stay an average of 9.2 years. Those in
social rented homes (council housing or housing association properties) stay a
little longer, at an average of 12.2 years. Finally, those homeowners without a
mortgage stay the longest, at 23.2 years!
Are
there any surprises in this? How does your own living situation compare? How
long have you lived in your Northampton home?
