Housing mix against assessed need

Supplement P Tables P.5 and P.10

How this region's housing is distributed across design categories, against how its assessed need is distributed. Shares of each side's own mix, because dwellings and people are different units.

SHARE OF HOUSING, SHARE OF NEED HOUSING VS NEED 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% High Physical Support Housing that has been designed to incorporate a high level of physical access provision for people with significant physical impairment and requiring very high levels of support. 134 dwellings 92 people 72.0% 31.5% 2.3× more High Physical Support: 72.0% of the housing stock, 31.5% of assessed need housing than need Robust Housing that has been designed to incorporate a high level of physical access provision and be very resilient, while reducing the likelihood of reactive maintenance and reducing the risk to the participant and the community. 9 dwellings 15 people 4.8% 5.1% 1.1× less Robust: 4.8% of the housing stock, 5.1% of assessed need housing than need Improved Liveability Housing that has been designed to improve 'liveability' by incorporating a reasonable level of physical access and enhanced provision for people with sensory, intellectual or cognitive impairment. 31 dwellings 95 people 16.7% 32.5% 2.0× less Improved Liveability: 16.7% of the housing stock, 32.5% of assessed need housing than need Fully Accessible Housing that has been designed to incorporate a high level of physical access provision for people with significant physical impairment. 12 dwellings 90 people 6.5% 30.8% 4.8× less Fully Accessible: 6.5% of the housing stock, 30.8% of assessed need housing than need
Share of enrolled dwellings Share of participants with an SDA need

Shares are renormalised over the four design categories the NDIA reports on both sides. Excluded: 20.2% of dwellings (Basic and Multi-Design Category, which the demand tables do not use) and 14.1% of participants (design category not recorded). Supply from Supplement P Table P.5, need from Table P.10.
