December 10, 2020
In the EU in 2019, 70 per cent of the population lived in a household owning their home, while the remaining 30 per cent lived in rented housing. The highest shares of ownership were observed in Romania (96 per cent of the population owned their home), Hungary (92 per cent) and Slovakia (91 per cent).
In all Member States, owning is most common. However, in Germany, renting is almost equal with 49 per cent of the population being tenants. Austria (45 per cent) and Denmark (39 %) follow.
