Abstract
The subject of article is the satisfaction with housing among residents of European Union countries. The objective of the study is to compare the perceived satisfaction with housing among the inhabitants of these countries, and to divide the EU countries into homogeneous groups based on the aforementioned satisfaction; to assess whether the housing and social policy models implemented in the countries are coincident with the results of the grouping; and to determine whether housing deprivation is present in the resulting groups. Data comes from two sources: The European Quality of Life Survey (EQLS) 2016, which contains variables reflecting respondents’ subjective satisfaction with housing, and the Eurostat database, which contains information on housing deprivation. The analysis showed that five is the optimal number of clusters. In these groups, the residents’ satisfaction with housing was analysed, thus identifying the clusters of residents who are most and least satisfied with housing. Furthermore, it was shown that there is a relationship between the housing policy model implemented in a country and the clustering results, while no analogous relationship was found for social policy models. It was indicated which housing deprivation elements were most and least prevalent in the designated groups of countries. Problems affecting a significant proportion of households in the designated groups are excessive dampness, ambient noise, pollution, and crime in the area. The article contributes to the literature on quality of housing, which is one of the aspects of quality of life. It highlights the similarities among countries in terms of housing satisfaction and explores potential factors influencing these similarities.
