NEW RESEARCH ON ESTATES

Progress on twenty 'unpopular' estates, 1980-2005

This study by Rebecca Tunstall and Alice Coulter of the London School of Economics is based on research carried out on 20 council estates in England over 25 years. The estates were tracked through visits and interviews in 1982, 1988, 1994 and 2005. In 1980, the estates were all unpopular, had serious management problems and many also had physical problems. The research has tracked their progress and this latest project comments on the whole period, with a focus on the last ten years.

Full report and summaries are available from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation website.
