Definition

The purpose of the Public rental housing data set specification is to describe information about tenants in public rental housing covered by the National Affordable Housing Agreement (NAHA). Included are households residing in public rental housing dwellings where the dwelling is either:

  • owned by the housing authority; or
  • leased from the private sector or other housing program areas and used for provision of public rental housing.

Public rental housing dwellings leased to other program areas such as community housing or crisis and emergency accommodation programs are not included in this collection.

Dwellings no longer under the administration of the property manager/agency at June 30th 2010 (including dwellings demolished, sold or disposed of) and dwellings not yet available to the property manager/agency at June 30th 2010 (such as those still under construction or being purchased) are excluded.

Guide for use:

All jurisdictions are asked to supply the single/couple codes in 2009–10 data extractions. Previously, a household’s bedroom requirement has been calculated using the Proxy Occupancy Standard (POS), however under NAHA reporting requirements, the match of a dwelling to household size is based on Canadian National Occupancy Standard (CNOS).

New low income cut–off measures for low income households based on new definition under NAHA.
