Access to housing in the EU has become problematic in recent years. Demography and urbanisation-related structural factors, aggravated by the COVID-19 pandemic, the conflict in Ukraine, soaring energy prices, the cost-of-living crisis and (already high) housing prices that keep rising are preventing many people from accessing decent housing solutions.

Despite their quest for independence, young people face a range of challenges that can deter them from leaving their parents' home, such as lack of financial independence, adverse labour market conditions, high housing costs and more generally living costs.

Why should young people in the EU worry about demographic change? For one thing, because the share of children and young people in the total population has been decreasing, while the share of elderly people continues to grow.
