Universal theme park sparks 'fear of losing homes'

A charity voices concerns over the impact of a Universal theme park on a town's housing market, fearing potential rent hikes and displacement of residents in Bedford. The park, set to open in 2031 near Bedford, could lead to increased demand for housing due to the influx of workers and visitors. Despite hopes of economic growth and job creation, local residents worry about losing their homes or facing financial strain from rising rental costs. Authorities are working on legislation to protect renters amidst these developments in Kempston Hardwick.
