Moving around Leicester: the homes
In the 2021 Census the most common home type in the Leicester council area was semi-detached houses (36.4% of households), so drivers there are used to that kind of access. Tell them about stairs, narrow hallways and parking so they can plan the job.

Across the Leicester council area, 46.7% of households are owner-occupied, 29.4% are privately rented and 23.2% are socially rented (Census 2021). 33.0% of households have no car or van, which is worth knowing when you plan where the van will stop.
