Notes: Please interpret changes with caution as they may be partly due to improved data collection methods rather than change in client numbers.
Some clients may change accommodation type throughout the year. As a result, double counting may occur and the sum of the accommodation types will not match the net total exactly.
Dumfries & Galloway, Edinburgh, Moray, Renfrewshire and Stirling have been unable to provide net totals and therefore some element of double counting may be present. Net totals for these LAs have been estimated.
Dumfries & Galloway have 479 clients with an unknown accommodation type. These have been estimated based on the distribution of the remaining clients.
Scottish Borders are unable to provide a breakdown of accommodation type. Estimates have been made based on the Scotland level proportions.
