> homes to households hasn’t changed even as prices have gone up

Office for National Statistics (ONS) definition of a household: one person living alone, or a group of people (not necessarily related) living at the same address who share cooking facilities and share a living room, sitting room, or dining area.

By that definition (occupied homes)/households is always about 1, so homes/households is pretty much just homes/(occupied homes).
