Population growth exceeds projections

Is there any wonder that we have rising property prices and are experiencing this media branded 'housing crisis'?

We continue to fail to build anything like what is needed to meet demand.

Zoopla's blog has just pointed out that the population growth in England is 12 per cent higher than the National Population Projection, from 2012.

The National Population Projection forecast England's population growth to be 350,000 in 2012/13 and 384,000 in 2013/14, but ONS latest figures puts actual growth  in 2012/13 at 372,000 and 451,000 in 2013/14.

As for the coming years, it's really anyone's guess.
