Volume 2: Housing Allocations in 2020 and 2021
The study gives the numbers and descriptions of the social landlord housing allocated during 2021 (financing category, level of rent, reservation quota, typology) as well as the characteristics of the social housing applicants who obtained housing (how long they had been applying, family make-up, income level, priority character of the application including those qualifying as beneficiaries of the housing rights DALO law) .
The description of housing allocations made in 2021 and in previous years is based on two sources: the different construction dates of the Rentable Social Housing Stock Register (RPLS) and the different“Social Housing Applications and Allocations ” data bases published by the DRIHL Ile-de-France since 2017.
In the course of 2021, 12,882 family housing units from the social landlord stock were thus allocated to households registered as social housing applicants in Paris. Among those benefiting from these allocations, 10,772 applicants obtained housing within the scope of regulated allocations including 3,110 households (28.9%) whose applications were deemed to be priority cases (in particular those recognised by DALO) by the State departments.
