Public and private renters are more likely than home owners to report fair or poor health. The direction of causality is not understood and it is unclear whether renting makes people unwell or if sick people are more likely to be renting. There is a need to learn more about the causes and effects on health for people living in rented accommodation. This could help policy makers decide if the style, security or type of accommodation should be changed and whether more preventative medicine and lifestyle education should be directed at renters.
