Roy Carr-HillSlide2

Household Surveys

Omitted from Sampling Frames by Design

Homeless populations

Institutional populations

Mobile, nomadic or pastoralist populations

Under-represented in Practice

Fragile, disjointed or multiple occupancy households

Slum populations

Difficult to reach areasSlide3

Numbers Missing

Homeless: c.85,000 households assessed as unintentionally homeless + 1,250 rough sleepers; but Crisis estimates that there are about 350,000 households actually homeless but staying with family or friends

Institutionalised:

Hospitals: c.160,000 adults in hospital on any one night; given that 29% live alone, a minimum of 48,000 wrongly counted as empty on any day

Care Homes: c.418,000 in publicly or privately provided homes in UK

Military: c.108,000 service personnel serving abroad or living in barracksSlide4

Gypsies

Prison population: c.85,000

Refugees: officially c.238,000, unofficially double

Mobile / Nomadic Population: c. 82,000 Gypsies and c.8i000 New Age Travellers

Fragile and Disjointed Households: 22,000 children in care

Urban Slums: not relevant for UK

Insecure Areas: not relevant for UKSlide5

How Many are Poor

All those in or just released from prison (90,000), the 90,000 gypsies and 238,000 unofficial refugees will have low or very low money incomes making 413,000.

About a quarter of those living alone c.12,000, all those council supported (c.220,000) and a quarter of those in nursing homes (c.11,000).

Estimate that, among the 1,216,500 missing, 545,300 are from the poorest
