Linking demographics and housing stock

Housing provision planning goes hand in hand with demographic forecasts and analyses. We help municipalities estimate future housing needs based on a given demographic trend. Our analyses are used both for municipal planning and for reporting to national government agencies.

In-depth analyses can also explore the role of housing planning in segregation and socioeconomic conditions at sub-area level.

We can:

• Analyse the municipality's housing stock and how well it matches expected demographic needs

• Estimate housing needs by household type and produce household forecasts for reporting to Boverket (the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning)

• Identify gaps between supply and forecast needs
