These moved unusually against comparable areas, and did not simply move with them. A change shared with everywhere else is a fact about the country, not this place.
| Measure | Period | Value | Change | Against peers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Households in temporary accommodation with children | Q1 2025 | 248 | -71 | in the bottom 5% of 285 |
| Children in temporary accommodation | Q1 2025 | 585 | -164 | in the bottom 5% of 285 |
Shown separately because these say something about the country rather than about Sheffield.
