It has one of the highest rates of households in temporary accommodation, and one of the highest population turnover rates in London; with large numbers of people moving into the borough transiently. It is also believed to have the have the highest number of asylum seekers and refugees of any London borough. In 2016 only 56.7% of Newham's women were employed.
