Guernsey net new homes per year vs the island’s estimate of need
Net additions to Guernsey's housing stock each year, 2016-2025, against the States' own Strategic Housing Indicator of about 313 more homes a year. Building has run below that benchmark every year.
Read this with the chart: Net additions are units created (new build plus subdivision and conversion) minus units removed. This is the Stock Bulletin measure and differs from Planning Service completions. The reference line is the States’ own estimate of need, not a legislated target.
