Mixed tenure features strongly in current policy yet there have been no studies of long-established estates which were originally built on these principles. This study fills that gap, looking at three estates designed with tenure mix in mind and which are now 'mature' and can show whether the benefits are real or illusory.

Case studies of mixed tenure also often focus on adults' attitudes and miss those of children and young people - yet the benefits of mixed schooling (for example) are acknowledged by educationalists.

By looking at established estates from younger as well as older residents' perspectives, this topical study fills two important gaps in our knowledge and makes an important contribution to the debate on how to achieve more sustainable communities.
