    Good point well made. 18,000 waiting list in Camden alone.
    It's 13,128 in Camden at the moment.

    It's 12.6% of households
    In Hackney it's 25.8%
    In Newham it's 30.2%
    Across the whole of inner London it's 13.6%, the lowest being in Westminster (7.4%), Wandsworth (7.5%) and Kensington (7.7%).

    Where I live it's 13.2%

    There are many people (me, for example) who would never even go onto the waiting list because we know we'd never get anywhere, so there's no point.
