Strategic housing market assessment (SHMA)

A strategic housing market assessment (SHMA) (Adobe PDF format) was published by the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) in April 2021.

The purpose of the SHMA is to provide a robust understanding of housing market dynamics and to provide an assessment of future needs for both market and affordable housing and the housing needs of different groups within the population over the long term.

The SHMA forms part of the evidence base for Places for Everyone which was adopted in March 2024.
