A rapidly changing demographic… Manchester is experiencing rapid demographic change: • The population has increased ahead of forecasts • It is increasingly ethnically diverse • New residents are having more children • There are more people in work • People are better educated • There are record numbers of graduates many of which are choosing to live in the city centre and fringe • At the same time however; – High levels of worklessness; complex dependency and pockets of deprivation remain – Unprecedented pressure on school places – Welfare reforms are changing neighbourhoods
A rapidly changing housing market… • A revival in city centre living • The private rented sector is now the dominant tenure • High numbers of rented units within the apartment market • Housing choices linked to work in the city centre & fringe • Manchester’s residential growth strategy sets out our aim to build 5000 new homes over the next 1-3 years • However: – There is a chronic lack of supply – There is a shortage of developable land in the city centre & fringe – Future development is likely to be tall, dense and for private rent – Higher value sites across GM for lower density executive homes
