The definitive publisher-authenticated version is available online at: https://doi.org/10.1332/175982720X16083745195730 The accepted version of the publication may differ from the final published versionBased on freedom of information responses from English local authorities, the research examines the number of households where a duty to accommodate was accepted that were subsequently housed in other local authority areas. Recognising neoliberal housing policy of increased marketisation and less government intervention, the article identifies market failure, housing unaffordability and welfare reform contributing to households being displaced and social cleansing. Importantly, the research recognises negative housing outcomes beyond the binary of homelessness and the impact on vulnerable households by examining out of area housing, which is currently an under-researched area within housing.application/pdfenhousingout of arealocal authorityneoliberalismsocial cleansingJournal articleJournal of Poverty and Social Justice2021-01-19
