Estimating the incidence of a housing affordability gap across the Cambridge travel-to-work area Andreas Culora; Christian Van Stolk https://www.rand.org/pubs/research_reports/RRA754-1.html 2020-12-09T16:01:00Z 2020-12-09T16:01:00Z The aim of this study is to estimate the number of households living in the Cambridge travel-to-work area that fall into a housing affordability gap, i.e. earn below £45,000. Almost half (48.4%) of these households fall in the gap, varying locally.
