The column chart illustrates people owning and renting houses rates in England and Wales from 1918 to 2011.
Overall
, As is obvious, contrary to the rise in the number of individuals who rented accommodations during
this
period, the percentage of others who bought houses had declined. It seems that the people’s power to purchase accommodations had fallen. In 1918, the proportion of renters was approximately 20%, meanwhile, the share of owners was hardly 70%. After that time, renters’ statistics saw a dramatic growth, to 60% in 2011 respectively. After the sharp rise, the data experienced a graduate decline in 2001.
However
, for about 10 years, from 1939 to 1953, the numbers persevered steadily but afterwards, they started a dropping trend. The numbers decreased significantly from 1953 to 2011 to 40% per year. 1971 saw an equivalent rate in both renters and owners rates which stood at 50% of the total.
