    About this map

    What a licence record holds

    A council licenses a house in multiple occupation (HMO) and lists it on its public register. A record gives the licence type and status, when it started and when it expires, and, where the council publishes them, how many people and households it allows and the number of bedrooms and storeys. The card also lists the planning applications made at the address. No personal details are shown.

    How the map works

    Licensed shows the licences. Proposed shows planning applications to create, convert to, extend or change the use of an HMO, with their status. Zoomed out, licences group into clusters that open as you zoom in, and Density shades the map by how many licences fall in each area. Search a postcode, a town or a council to list what is there, and narrow the list with the filters.
