According to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, there are currently 93,000 empty homes in London and of these, about 38,000 have been empty for longer than six months. The figures are particularly stark in certain central London postcodes. Census data shows that in the City of London, nearly a third of homes are unoccupied at any given time, with similarly high proportions in Westminster and Kensington and Chelsea.
