# Floor Area estimation

To provide estimates of residential and non-residential floor area, based on households, dwellings,
existing building stock and new builds, as a key input to the HIRE energy demand model,
[`nismod/energy_demand`](https://github.com/nismod/energy_demand/) for the Cam-MK-Ox Arc analysis.

"The average UK home - including older and new-build properties is 85 sq m and has 5.2 rooms - with an average area of 16.3 sq m per room. In comparison the average new home in the UK is 76 sq ms and has 4.8 rooms with an average area of 15.8 sq m per room"
