Yes it is, and there are not as many smaller properties as vicky says, the council built many family homes which means that there are considerably less 1 and 2 bed properties in any town. This is what is causing problems for those affected, if there is nothing suitable as an alternative they have to stay put and pay the excess. Or go into private rented accommodation and if welfare dependent it ends up costing the government more in rent than if they had stayed in social housing.
