Housing here: what the census shows

The 2021 Census counted 83,651 people and 35,975 occupied homes in Peterborough.

68% are single-detached, semi-detached or row houses, where the owner is responsible for the foundation, the drains and the sewer lateral. 7% are apartments in buildings of five or more storeys, and a further 25% are in low-rise buildings or duplexes. There, a leak commonly reaches the units below and involves the landlord or condominium corporation.

41% of households rent, which means two sets of insurance on many losses: the owner's for the building and the tenant's for belongings.
