Do housing conditions make a difference to our health? A study of home ownership and renting in Australia.

Author: Waters, A. M.
Year: 2002
Type: Report

Abstract:

This study examines the evidence of both homeownership/renting and overcrowding that can be drawn from the most recent National Health Survey. The author also looks at overseas research where it can be usefully related to the local experience. For policy makers, this report confirms the health divide between owning and renting. It also examines inferences about renting and health pointing the way to future research and planning in this area.
