Volume

Broxbourne is outside the top ten by volume, but still carries a material local load

Broxbourne ranks 102 nationally and 6 in East of England for supported asylum count, placing it around the 72th percentile of local authorities by volume.

Intensity

Intensity is stronger than the raw count alone suggests

The supported asylum rate here is 35.43 per 10,000 residents, around the 92th percentile nationally. This matters because smaller places can carry a sharper load than bigger city totals imply.

Accommodation model

A large share of support is sitting in contingency accommodation

311 people are in contingency accommodation here, around 86.1% of the supported asylum population and roughly the 91th percentile by contingency count.

Visibility

The hotel layer is still mostly invisible in public records here

No named current site or unnamed acknowledged count is attached to this area yet, which is itself a reminder that absence of public evidence is not evidence of absence.

Local reading East of England

How this place reads in context

Broxbourne sits 102 nationally by supported asylum count and 6 within East of England. The raw volume is 361, but the rate of 35.43 per 10,000 residents gives a cleaner sense of local intensity than the headline count on its own.

Homes for Ukraine is the largest non-asylum pathway in this area at 113. That matters because the local story is not just about one route family; it is about how asylum support, humanitarian schemes, and historic resettlement stack together in one place.

East of England as a whole currently carries 6,715 people on supported asylum, with a weighted regional rate of 10.21 per 10,000 residents. This page puts Broxbourne inside that wider regional pressure field instead of treating it as an isolated case.

Hotel evidence for this place

Place pages should merge live route data with the named and unnamed hotel evidence already on the public record.

Evidence gap

No public hotel evidence logged yet

That does not mean the area has no hotel use. It means the ledger has no publishable public evidence row attached yet.
