Notes: Figures may include estimates from providers. Units classified as medium dependency include approximately 14,000 units which were previously unclassified, while the ambulant disabled category excludes approximately 5.000 units previously classified as ambulant disabled. The figures reported here will therefore differ substantially from those previously published for 2002.
1. Sometimes known as amenity housing
2. Dwellings are adapted to suit particular needs of tenants, so numbers in these categories may rise or fall from year to year.
