English Housing Survey, 2018: Housing Stock Data

<p>The <i>English Housing Survey</i> (EHS) is a continuous national survey commissioned by the Ministry of Housing, Community and Local Government (MHCLG) that collects information about people's housing circumstances and the condition and energy efficiency of housing in England. The EHS brings together two previous survey series into a single fieldwork operation: the <i>English House Condition Survey</i> (EHCS) (available from the UK Data Archive under GN 33158) and the <i>Survey of English Housing</i> (SEH) (available under GN 33277). The EHS covers all housing tenures. The information obtained through the survey provides an accurate picture of people living in the dwelling, and their views on housing and their neighbourhoods. The survey is also used to inform the development and monitoring of the Ministry's housing policies. Results from the survey are also used by a wide range of other users including other government departments, local authorities, housing associations, landlords, academics, construction industry professionals, consultants, and the general public.</p><p>
The EHS has a complex multi-stage methodology consisting of two main elements; an initial interview survey of around 12,000 households and a follow-up physical inspection. Some further elements are also periodically included in or derived from the EHS: for 2008 and 2009, a desk-based market valuation was conducted of a sub-sample of 8,000 dwellings (including vacant ones), but this was not carried out from 2010 onwards. A periodic follow-up survey of private landlords and agents (the <i>Private Landlords Survey</i> (PLS)) is conducted using information from the EHS interview survey. Fuel Poverty datasets are also available from 2003, created by the Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC).<br>
<br>
The EHS interview survey sample formed part of the Integrated Household Survey (IHS) (available from the Archive under GN 33420) from April 2008 to April 2011. During this period the core questions from the IHS formed part of the EHS questionnaire.<br>
<br>
<i>Safeguarded and Special Licence Versions:</i><br>
From 2014 data onwards, the Safeguarded versions (previously known as End User Licence (EUL)) of the EHS will only include derived variables. In addition the number of variables on the new EUL datasets has been reduced and disclosure control increased on certain remaining variables. New Special Licence versions of the EHS will be deposited later in the year, which will be of a similar nature to previous EHS EUL datasets and will include derived and raw datasets.</p><p>

<p><i>英格兰住房调查（English Housing Survey, EHS）</i>是由住房、社区与地方政府部（Ministry of Housing, Community and Local Government, MHCLG）委托开展的持续性全国调查，旨在收集英格兰地区民众的住房状况、住房条件及能源效率相关信息。英格兰住房调查将此前两项独立调查系列整合为统一的实地调研项目：分别是<i>英格兰住房状况调查（English House Condition Survey, EHCS）</i>（可从英国数据档案馆（UK Data Archive）获取，编号GN 33158）与<i>英格兰住房调查（Survey of English Housing, SEH）</i>（可获取编号GN 33277）。英格兰住房调查覆盖所有住房保有类型。通过该调查获取的信息能够精准描绘居住在住宅中的民众画像，以及他们对住房与周边社区的看法。该调查同时用于辅助该部门住房政策的制定与监控。调查结果还被广泛应用于其他诸多用户群体，包括其他政府部门、地方当局、住房协会、房东、学术研究者、建筑业专业人士、咨询顾问以及普通公众。</p><p>英格兰住房调查采用复杂的多阶段调研方法，主要包含两大核心模块：一是针对约12000户家庭的初始访谈调查，二是后续的实地物理检测。此外，部分额外模块会定期纳入英格兰住房调查或从其数据中衍生得出：2008年与2009年，项目针对8000套住宅（包括空置住宅）的子样本开展了基于案头工作的市场估值，但2010年起该环节不再实施。另有一项针对私人房东与中介的周期性跟踪调查——<i>私人房东调查（Private Landlords Survey, PLS）</i>，其数据源自英格兰住房调查的访谈调研模块。2003年起还可获取由能源与气候变化部（Department for Energy and Climate Change, DECC）编制的燃料贫困数据集。<br>
<br>
2008年4月至2011年4月期间，英格兰住房调查的访谈调研样本纳入了综合家庭调查（Integrated Household Survey, IHS）（可从档案馆获取，编号GN 33420）的相关样本。此阶段，综合家庭调查的核心问题被纳入英格兰住房调查问卷中。<br>
<br>
<i>终端用户许可（End User Licence, EUL）与特殊许可版本：</i><br>
2014年及之后的数据版本中，英格兰住房调查的终端用户许可版本仅包含衍生变量。此外，新版终端用户许可数据集的变量数量有所缩减，部分剩余变量的披露管控力度有所加强。新版英格兰住房调查特殊许可版本将于本年度晚些时候提交存档，其内容与此前的终端用户许可版本数据集性质相似，将包含衍生数据集与原始数据集。<br>
