Neal Hudson, a residential property analyst at Savills, has produced a fascinating map illustrating the distribution of different housing tenure types in central and inner London. Green means social housing, blue means private rented, orange signifies home owners with mortgages and red shows wholly-owned.

There's a small health warning from Neal that the map suggests the data it is based on is more precise than it really is. However, the general picture is clear enough. I'm very struck by the concentration of private rented north of the river.

Neal has also sent me the map below, which he says is more accurate, and shows tenure distribution and mix across the whole of Greater London.
