The chart below shows the percentage of households in owned and rented accommodation in England and Wales between 1918 and 2011. 

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
The provided bar chart elucidates the proportion of
households
that lived in their own or rented accommodation in England and Wales from 1918 to 2011. It is evident from the data that there was a significant surge in home ownership and a decline in rental
properties
. Prior to 1971, the proportion of rented
properties
was greater than that of owned
properties
, with rented
properties
accounting for almost 80% of
households
in 1918.
Conversely
, the percentage of
households
owning their homes was less than 30%. The gap between these two percentages began to narrow after 1918, with rental
properties
dropping to approximately 60% and owned
properties
increasing to 40% by 1961. Over the next 40 years, the number of
households
owning their own homes began to surpass those renting, with the percentage of owned
properties
increasing from 50% in 1981 to 70% in 2001, and
then
marginally declining to 65% in 2011. Meanwhile, the proportion of rented
properties
declined from 50% in 1981 to a low of 30% in 2001 before gradually increasing to around 35% in 2011.
