Abstract

Land is fundamental in housing production. Without easy access to land, issues of housing may not be adequately discussed. This study examines factors that are associated with land accessibility for housing development in border communities of Ogun State, Nigeria. Multi-stage sampling procedure was used in selecting 562 landowners. Data collected were analyzed through the use of frequency distribution, percentages, mean scores, and factor analysis. The study revealed that majority of the respondents earned between N20,001 (52$) to N 60,000 (157$) per month with an average income of N 39,347.3 (103$). This implies that majority of the respondents were low-income earners. The study discovered that high cost, pressure on residential land, and high cost of land relative to household income among others have a major influence on land accessibility for housing provision. The use of factor analysis showed that affordability (23.5%), security of tenure (14.3%), procedural (10.7%) factors were the major factors influencing land accessibility for housing development while personal attributes (8.2%) and land availability (6.6%) were the least associated factors. In conclusion, despite the fact that land is physically available, the condition attached to accessing land for housing development makes it unavailable to the urban poor due to high cost, insecure tenure, and procedural issues. The study, therefore, recommended that efforts should be made by the government in considering these factors in ensuring land accessibility for housing development among urban dwellers.
