I understand that there is a housing shortage but I am confused. In the town I live in, probably like many towns I suspect, there are hundreds of flats being built and I just wonder where all these people are living that will buy them!

And longer term, whether there will be too many....

People tend to forget that most marriages end in divorce so that's two homes needed instead of one. I expect the same is true of other relationships where the parties aren't married. Very different from a generation or so back when most couples seemed to stay together and it must have had a massive impact on housing needs.
Yes but they get married again more than ever too.
