Data scope
Participants are randomly sampled from social housing programs e.g. Public Housing (PH), State Owned and Managed Indigenous Housing (SOMIH), Community Housing (CH) and Indigenous Community Housing (ICH).
The AIHW managed the NSHS in 2005, 2007, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016 and 2018.
There have been changes to the methodology for the NSHS over time. However, minimal changes have been made to the survey since 2012 to support time-series analysis.
