The same LFS data has also been used to look at tenure (Figures 7.4 and 7.5). Only two groups (those born in Kenya or Singapore) match the UK percentage in owner occupation, all others having a higher percentage in rented accommodation. Those born in India, Ireland and Italy, however, have a higher percentage who own outright. Figure 7.4
