  • Description: A combination of development constraint, low wages in seasonal employment and market intrusion by more affluent households generates housing access and affordability difficulties in many rural amenity areas. In response, residents’ groups and public planners have sometimes sought to prioritise ‘local needs’, restricting the occupancy of new housing to key workers or others deemed ‘local’. Drawing on examples from England, this paper illustrates how these down-stream interventions are often rendered ineffective by the upstream and structural drivers of housing access inequality, revealing a need for up-stream reforms focused on community control of land and the tax treatment of housing.
