What is the ownership structure of housing in Europe following enlargement? Is there a significant difference between the 'old' and 'new' Member States as regards available living space? What are the perceptions of quality of the local environment in Europe? How does satisfaction with housing vary? This report explores housing conditions in the context of individual quality of life, revealing important differences in standards and expectations across the EU. The findings are based on the Foundation's First European Quality of Life Survey, which was carried out across 28 countries: the EU25, two acceding countries - Bulgaria and Romania - and one candidate country, Turkey.
