Housing affordability ratio: increase in the level according to family composition
The housing affordability ratio of households is an indicator of the ability to access and remain in housing. It measures the ratio between the cost of housing (rent charges or loan repayments as well as the normal household costs such as electricity or water, etc.) and a household’s disposable income (excluding housing aids - EUROSTAT definition). This indicator is about the evolution (2016-2019) of the affordability ratio for resident households according to family composition.
