Affordable housing in rural areas
Article Abstract:
UK local authorities are being urged to step up the provision of low-cost housing in rural areas. There is little cash help available for these authorities to build or renovate such housing. There is a great social need for such housing, which would prevent migration from villages and help preserve local services and communities. An 'exceptions policy' has been developed to expedite affordable housing in rural communities.
