Overview

Before you start a new council housing application, you should consider what housing options we have in the city.
We've compiled information to help you decide if you can remain where you are or need to move.
It's important to know that in most areas of Sheffield, the number of available Shefifeld City Council properties don't meet current demand. We have a Guide to Waiting Times map you can use to see how long the average waiting times are across Sheffield.
The map also tells you:
- how many council properties are in your preferred area (compared to the number of properties advertised and let)
- lettings data from the last 12 months
- shows what has become available by bedroom size and property type
Your housing application will tell you what size property you are eligible for. Or, you can use the Bedroom eligibility table.
The information here will help you:
- decide the housing option that is best for you
- stay in your current property
