This is the share of the council's homes that fall below the government's Decent Homes Standard — the minimum for a home being warm, safe and in reasonable repair. It is one of the most direct measures of housing quality. A figure near 0% means virtually all homes meet the basic standard; a high figure means many tenants are living in homes officially classed as not good enough.

| missingness | Stock-transfer (LSVT) councils are absent — they own no stock, so absence is structural, not missing data. Only large landlords (1,000+ social homes) report; Files 05/06 list excluded landlords. CH01/CH02 also have `_LCHO`/`_COMB` variants in File 04 — landlords reporting combined tenures carry values in the `_COMB` columns, so check variants before treating a value as missing. |

Percentage of homes failing the Decent Homes Standard (RP01, File 04). Higher is worse — it is a failure rate, not a satisfaction score — and it is the main objective stock-condition measure, pairing with TP04 perception. Numerator and denominator columns are present in File 04, so the rate can be recomputed or re-based.
