With some of the most expensive housing in the world and rents in places like Christchurch increasing by 30% since the 2012 earthquake, one in 120 Kiwis are now classed as homeless. Homeless' or 'housing deprived' people include those living in unsafe and unsuitable locations such as garages, sheds, tents, caravans and cars, couch surfing or living in shared housing with other families. The community who are more commonly thought of as homeless, those sleeping rough on the streets, represent only 20% of those now affected.
