Indigenous housing indicators 2005-06 is the Institute's second national report on Indigenous housing information. It includes national data colleted by the Institute on Indigenous community housing and state-owned and managed Indigenous housing. Detailed information is presented on a range of Indigenous housing indicators including overcrowding, dwelling condition, affordability, connection to services and recurrent and capital expenditure. There is also a range of information on Indigenous community housing organisations such as whether they have a housing management plan and the proportion of employees undertaking training. The report is a useful resource for policy makers, administrators and researchers with an interest in Indigenous housing issues.
