Annotation	Between 1971 and 1991, the number of one person households grew by 2.17 million. An even larger increase - 2.76 million - is projected for the 20 years to 2011. This volume comprises detailed elements of the research used in Volume 1 on housing preferences. Analysis of the future and present characteristics of single households using the 1993/94 and 1994/95 Survey of English housing sets the scene. Other papers comprise: a report on single people's housing preferences; a provider survey on housing for single people; the changing housing preferences of one person households in the 1990s; and literature reviews on single person households' locational, housing and lifestyle preferences; and a review of literature on purchaser characteristics and housing transactions.
