This table presents estimates drawn from a MRP model of support for building new houses locally at the local authority level. The data is drawn from two YouGov surveys conducted by Ben Ansell and the WEALTHPOL team in June 2021 and October 2021, totalling 6624 respondents from a representative sample of Great Britain. The table provides estimates of the mean level of local authority residents who ‘somewhat’ or ‘strongly’ support building new houses in their local area. 5th and 95th percentiles for each local authority estimate are also provided.
You can use the text boxes to search for your local authority. By clicking the header of each column you can also rank order the data by that column. And if you want to download the data there’s a button below to do so.
If data is used please cite Ben Ansell (2023) “The UK’s Prosperity Trap”, available at https://benansell.substack.com/. And I’d appreciate you letting me know!
