In temporary accommodation in Boston on 31 December 2025

8 children were living in those 12 households.

That is 0.4 households in temporary accommodation for every 1,000 households in the area, of which there are about 30,511. The rate across England was 5.5.

That is the 142nd-highest rate of the 162 district councils in the table.

That is unchanged from on 30 September 2025, when it was also 12.

Households in temporary accommodation for every 1,000 households in the area, which is the publisher’s own figure. Councils are compared with councils of their own kind — the table’s only classification is the ONS code — because a London borough beside a rural district is arithmetic without meaning. Councils that did not return data are absent from the ranking rather than counted as nil.

April to June 2025 is missing from this table. MHCLG published that quarter in a spreadsheet format this pipeline cannot read, so we do not hold it. It is a gap in our record, not a quarter in which nothing was counted, and any comparison on this page names the quarter it actually used.

Each row is a count on one day at the end of the quarter, not a total for the quarter, and it counts households rather than people. A council that did not return data is shown as such; it is never read as nil.
