This dataset shows the number of second addresses used as a holiday home expressed as a rate per 1,000 dwellings, from Census 2021. These statistics are presented for electoral wards in Wales. Notes Census 2021 collected information on people who usually resided in England and Wales who said they stayed at least 30 days a year at a second address. Information about the location and purpose of the second address were collected - examples include address when working away from home, armed forces address, another parent or guardian’s address and holiday home. The Census did not capture all properties used as ‘holiday homes’ or short term lets. If someone owned a second address but never stayed there, or it was not occupied by the same person for 30 days a year or more, it was not captured. The census asked where people lived or stayed, but did not ask about ownership of second addresses. Some second addresses may not be used by any usual residents in England and Wales for at least 30 days a year, and these would not be captured in these data.
