Scottish Vacant and Derelict Land Survey 2000

Comparison of vacant and derelict land (hectares) between 1998 – 2000

2.9 Table 2 shows a comparison of the areas of vacant and derelict land recorded in the survey years 1998 – 2000. It should be noted that some councils did not participate in the 2000 and/or earlier surveys. In these cases the most recent available data have been used to provide an estimate for the appropriate year.
