Vacant dwellings in private park by municipality, department, region, France
Dataset produced under LOVAC, part of France's national plan to combat vacant housing (launched 2020), which supports local authorities and decentralized services in identifying and characterizing vacant dwellings. It is built from the DGFiP's 1767Biscom file, cross-referenced with Cerema's Fichiers Fonciers and DV3F, the Base Adresse Nationale, and the Référentiel National du Bâtiment. It counts vacant dwellings in the private housing stock by municipality, department, region and nationally, broken down by length of vacancy, distinguishing short-term (frictional) vacancy from long-term (structural) vacancy, the target of the national plan. The data also feeds the Zéro Logement Vacant public service, run by the Directorate-General for Planning, Housing and Nature, which helps communities mobilize owners of long-vacant private rental housing, including poorly insulated dwellings affected by the Climate and Resilience law.Background: The LOVAC treatment was created as part of the [national plan to combat vacant housing] (https://www.ecologie.gouv.fr/plan-national-fight-against-housing-vacants). Launched in 2020, it aims in particular to equip decentralized communities and services in the identification and characterization of vacant housing in order to offer solutions for re-marketing adapted to the owners concerned. LOVAC data feeds Zero Housing Vacant, the free digital public service offered by the Directorate-General for Planning, Housing and Nature. This tool is intended to support communities in mobilizing owners of structurally vacant housing (vacants for more than 2 years) and the private rental park to prevent the vacancy of energy sieves (Climate and resilience law). Presentation of the dataset: LOVAC is a database based on the file 1767Biscom of DGFiP, cross-referenced with the Ficheers Fonciers (FF) and DV3F of Cerema, as well as the Base Address Nationale (BAN) and the Référentiel National du Bâtiment (RNB). These data make it possible to count the number of vacant dwellings in the private stock by municipality, department, region and France and by length of vacancy. They thus make it possible to distinguish the short-term vacancy, known as frictional, from the long-term vacancy, known as structural, which is the target of the national plan to combat vacant dwellings.
