Alternative approaches to measuring rental housing affordability in Australia. / by Landt, John | National Centre for Social and Economic Modelling | Bray, Rob. Publisher: Canberra, A.C.T National Centre for Social and Economic Modelling, University of Canberra 1997Description: v, 49 p. ; 21 cm.Other title: NATSEM. Discussion paper ; no. 16.Online Access: Electronic copy Notes: April 1997. Includes bibliographical references.Summary: The study analyses a range of approaches to measuring housing affordability in the Australian private rental market. In particular, it compares traditional consumption-based measures of housing affordability with a new measure of housing affordability based on the Canadian core housing need model, which includes the suitability of the dwelling for the household's needs as well as its cost. The main findings of the study are that low income earners in the private rental market generally pay rents similar to those of higher income earners. This results in housing stress for some low income families and individuals in the private rental market.Availability:

Assessment of service needs and provision for public housing tenants in Carlton. by Bergman, Drew. Publisher: Fitzroy, Vic. Ecumenical Migration Centre, Brotherhood of St Laurence 2001Description: 62 p. PDF.Online Access: DOWNLOAD PDF Summary: The focus of the following report is upon the needs of tenants at the Carlton Public Housing Estate, and upon public housing policy in Victoria.
There are three main objectives of this work:
■ to determine the needs of the Carlton Estate community and the availability of services;
■ to critically evaluate the public housing policy of Victoria as it relates to the Carlton Estate; and
■ to provide a limited sense of the community of Carlton, some of the Housing Estate tenants and the area service providers.
For the purposes of this report, the Carlton Public Housing Estate refers to the area bordered by Princes, Rathdowne, Lygon, and Neill Streets, as well as the two high-rise flats on the corner of Palmerston and Nicholson Streets. The main concern of the research has been to compare the policy intentions of public housing with the living reality of the situation. It attempts to determine some of the main strengths and weaknesses of public housing provision as seen by tenants, private service providers, and Ministry of Housing workers.
