Abstract

Many old industrial areas of Europe and beyond have seen population numbers fall. When the numbers of households also starts to drop, demand for housing decreases. This may result in high numbers of empty dwellings, especially when either the houses themselves or the areas in which they stand are unattractive. In countries like Germany and the United Kingdom, governments (both local and national) have recognised this as a problem and developed strategies to deal with it.
