Living in Wales was a survey carried out by Ipsos MORI for the Welsh Government. It collected information on households and the condition of homes in Wales.

The Living in Wales household survey was an annual survey carried out from 2004 to 2008.  It was based on face to face interviews with the household reference person or another appropriate adult in a sample of households across Wales. In 2004 and 2008 a property survey was also carried out, which meant that some respondents received a follow-up visit by a qualified surveyor to undertake a property assessment of their home.

The successor to Living in Wales is the National Survey for Wales (see Related Links).
