State of the Borough Profile
The State of the Borough Profile has been put together to provide all Haringey’s stakeholders – from
Officers and Councillors to Residents – with access to the data they need to understand the borough.
Only the most up-to-date and reliable data and sources have been included here, in order to provide
an in-depth look at key areas of the Council’s work and remit, which often also includes the work and
remit of our key partners. This single point of reference will be updated regularly, and used to drive
the Council’s work, ensuring that our work is driven by the highest quality and most robust data.
Additional information on the data, sources and methodologies we’ve used to put together this
profile can be found in the Appendix at the end. If you have questions about this profile please

COVID-19
COVID-19: General Information
• Over 10,000 residents in NHS extremely vulnerable ‘Shielded Group’ in Haringey in 2021. Over 4,400 of these have
registered through Gov. website for support.
• Over 10,000 people had contacted the Connected Communities helpline already by mid-July 2020, and have been spoken to
and offered information, advice, guidance and direct support (excluding Shielders).
• Older people, BAME communities, people with disabilities, and people from disadvantaged socio-economic background have
been more affected by the covid-19 virus in terms of illness and deaths
• Significant gender inequalities have emerged during the lockdown. While men have been more likely to die from covid-19,
women have been disadvantaged in areas including childcare and employment. Women from BAME communities have been
disadvantaged to a greater extent
• Children and young people have been disadvantaged to a greater extent than others in terms of mental health, access to
education, and employment
• The local economy will be severely impacted in terms of (un)employment and business viability, and Poverty will increase,
though the full extent of the increase is not yet known
COVID-19: Effect on Universal Credit
The latest DWP local data shows a huge increase in Universal
Credit declarations/ claims being made and individual
claimants due to COVID-19. This increase was sharpest at
the start of the pandemic, with the majority of the increase
happening between March and May 2020, however there has
been a steady rise in the number of claimants ever since.
The number of individuals claiming universal credit has
increased in every LSOA (hence every ward).
The overall number of UC claimants has increased by 27,900
(+192%) from Feb 20 to Mar 21.
The Wards in Haringey with the largest increases in claims
are: Tottenham Green (2,295), Northumberland Park (2,245),
and Tottenham Hale (2,126)
The majority of UC claimants are still in the East part of the
Borough with the wards with the highest number of claimants
overall being; Northumberland Park (3,863 claimants),
Tottenham Green (3,463), Tottenham Hale (3,293), Bruce
Grove (3,150) and Seven Sisters (3,037) accounting for 39%
of all claimants.
COVID-19: Vaccination Uptake (Service Users)
As of 31st March there are 777 service users who have not
been vaccinated (out of approximately 3,500 long term care
service users). 163 of these (21%) declined the first dose of
the vaccine.
Unvaccinated service users is highest amongst the 50-54
year olds with 41% unvaccinated.
The group with the highest number of unvaccinated service
users however is 80+ year olds (196 unvaccinated, 23% of all
service users). This is also the group with the highest
proportion of declined vaccinations (80 declines being 41%
of the total unvaccinated service users).
Housing
Housing: Tenure
In 2018, 34% of Haringey residents rent from a private landlord, with only 20% renting from the LA or HA
(25,500 fewer individuals). While most residents are happy with their home, happiness is lowest among
social renters.
• Haringey residents are most likely to rent from a private landlord
(34%). The proportion renting from the LA or Housing Association
has fallen from 31% in 2015 to just 20% in 2018, or 25,500
individuals fewer. The proportion buying with a mortgage fell in the
early half of the decade, but has been stable since 2015.
• Tenure follows clear deprivation lines across the borough – eastern
wards like Northumberland Park are least likely to own their home

and most likely to be social renting while in western wards like
Alexandra this trend is reversed.
• The 2018 Haringey Residents Survey found that the vast majority of
residents (90%) say they are happy with the home they live in.
Happiness with one’s home is highest among owner occupiers
(96%), and lowest among social renters (79%).
• The 2018-19 English Housing Survey showed that while levels of
non-decent homes have seen annual falls over time, the reductions
have levelled off in the last 2 years. Private Rented homes are most

Between 2011 and 2019, Haringey’s population grew at a slightly faster rate than the number of households.
Haringey has the third highest rate of households in TA in London.
• Between 2011 and 2019 Haringey’s number of households grew at a slightly
slower rate than the population (5.5% vs. 5.3%). The housing growth rate
has been relatively consistent, being 0.8% from 2015 to 2018, but fell in the
last year to 0.4%. Population growth fell significantly in 2016 and 2017, but
returned to a 1.1% growth last year.
• The median monthly private rent in Haringey is £1,500 (12 month rolling
period to Q2 20-21). This was previously £70 less than the London average
but is now £65 above it. The mean private rent is now £1,644 a week. This
was previously £200 less than the London average but is now equal to it.

Median weekly LA rents on the other hand are £103.72, a reduction for the
4th year in a row, and remaining just under the London median (£105.33).
• Median private rent has increased by 17.4% in the last 4 years, a higher rate
than local authority rents (5.5%) and London private rent (10.3%).
• Just more than 3,000 households in Haringey (25 per 1,000 households) are
living in temporary accommodation (statutory homeless). This is the third
highest rate in London, and despite decreasing, it is 80% higher than the
London level (14 per 1,000). 40% of residents accepted as statutory
homeless are black, while 25% of youth homeless are LGBT, an over-

representation compared to the wider borough population.Rough Sleeping and Homelessness
Local Authorities in England use a count or estimate to find out how many people are sleeping rough in their area. Since March 2020 Haringey has
seen a 74% decrease in rough sleeping. The ‘everyone in’ initiative, and the rapid mobilisation of new services in response to COVID-19 have
contributed to this reduction. The Counts and Estimates methodology produces a snapshot figure of how many people sleep rough on a typical
night, with figures available at local, regional and national levels. The data does not include people who are homeless but do not fall within the rough
sleeping definition, such as those who are in temporary accommodation or are staying with friends or family.

In Haringey people are generally seen bedded down in the Finsbury Park, Wood Green and
Tottenham areas. The shown map represents volume of contacts rather than individuals,
and some people may have been seen on multiple occasions within a given area. In
Haringey the vast majority are new rough sleepers with no second night out. A small
number of people rough sleeping in the borough are classed as living on the streets (LOS),
these people are very well known to our Outreach Team.Rough Sleeping and Homelessness
Official MHCLG figures show that the majority of people rough sleeping are men aged over 25 and from an EU country outside the UK. This is also
true in Haringey. Women are often hidden in rough sleeping statistics because they seek protection from gender-based harm on the streets by
sleeping in squats, buses and sex-working for accommodation. In Haringey, only 15% of people identified as rough sleeping are women. The
average age of death for women who experience rough sleeping is lower than for men who sleep rough: 42 years for women compared to 44 years
for men. A significant number of people who rough sleep experience drug or alcohol dependence. People who are dependent on drugs or alcohol
may struggle to retain accommodation due to financial difficulties, problems with behaviour or family relationship breakdown. Homelessness can
also be the route to substance dependence as a coping mechanism.

population in 2030, a total of 36,973
residents. The 65+ population is more
concentrated in the West, where
almost all areas have over 14% of the
population 65+.People: Deprivation
Haringey is the 4th most deprived borough in London, with deprivation more concentrated in the north east.
Relative deprivation has reduced since 2015, though Haringey’s London ranking has not shifted significantly.
• Haringey is ranked 49 out of the 317 local authorities in England
with respect to deprivation, and is the 4th most deprived in
London as measured by the IMD score 2019 (where 1 = most
deprived). The Index takes into account a range of deprivation
types, including income, employment, education, health, crime,
barriers to housing and services and living environment.
• The most deprived LSOAs (Lower Super Output Areas or small
neighbourhood areas) are more heavily concentrated in the east
of the borough, where more than half of the LSOAs fall into the
20% most deprived in the country. By comparison, in the west a
very small proportion of LSOAs fall into that category, and in the
westernmost wards – Highgate, Fortis Green, Muswell Hill,
Alexandra and Crouch End – there are none.
• Although Haringey’s overall IMD score has improved since 2015
(where it was ranked 30th in England), improvements have been
seen across London meaning that Haringey still ranks among the
