Housing
Housing has long been recognised as an issue that no state government can address on its own. Participation by federal and local governments, as well as community and not-for-profit providers and private industry, is required for a balanced system that reduces cost and maximises choice.
In 2020, 1 in 5 (200,000) households were estimated to need some form of housing assistance from the WA Government. By 2030, 45,000 additional households are likely to need assistance.
