The project will reveal, quantify and analyze actual regional disparities (among regions NUTS 3) in availability and affordability of housing in the Czech Republic. The time series describing the development of such disparities will be provided. The project will also analyse the influence of changes in housing conditions, in general, and the changes in regional disparities in housing conditions (availability and affordability of housing), in particular, on their potential selected socio-economic consequences. In this respect the project will use the original new methodology for measurement of availability and affordability of housing that reflects the particular situation in transitional countries.
The goal of the project is also to identify such factors that, on one side, influence the level of availability and affordability of housing and their regional disparities, and, on the second side, may be effectively shaped by public interventions. The goal is to propose such effective and efficient measures (tools) that would:
- increase availability and affordability of housing;
- decrease the regional disparities in availability and affordability of housing;
- decrease negative socio-economic consequences of low availability and affordability of housing and high regional disparities in availability and affordability of housing - especially consequences on demographic behaviour patterns of young generation, flexibility of labour and spatial social segregation of households endangered by unaffordability of housing;
- increase availability of particular types of housing especially in regions where there is high discrepance between housing supply and housing need (housing demand) of particular types of housing;
- increase availability of housing through particular effective and efficient tools on housing refurbishment;
- increase availability of housing through the introduction of new forms of rental housing.

The book presents the results of analyses of trends in regional differences both in affordability and availability of housing and their causes in between 2000 and 2006 in the Czech Republic. The housing affordability analysis uses new original methodology of measurement. In the field of housing availability the authors recommend the radical change of perspective used for its evaluation and methodological changes for the next census.
The paper focuses on the development of rental housing affordability in regions of the Czech republic in the period 2000-2006. The aim of the paper is to discover whether the disparities have been growing or shrinking among regions and among different types of households.
The paper addresses an analysis of regional disparities in rental housing affordability in the Czech Republic. In the paper, the issue of measuring housing affordability and the lack of relevant data set(s) are discussed. Additionally, the paper shows selected results of analysis of regional disparities in rental housing affordability in the period 2000 – 2006.
The paper focuses on the development of regional inequalities in rental housing (un)affordability in Czech Republic. The aim of the paper is to identify "model" types of household which are potentially at risk of being unable to afford "adequate" housing in case of no regulation. The development of regional differences in housing "unaffordability" in the period 2000-2007 is analysed.
The policy paper contains the proposal for structural changes of several housing policy measures in the Czech Republic. The goal of the reform is to increase policy effectiveness, efficiency, tenure neutrality and anticyclicity. The second section of paper describes the results of large-scale simulations of the reform and its impact on public expenditures and income distribution.
The article deals with an analysis of regional differences in rental housing affordability following rent deregulation in the Czech Republic. The objective is to identify the types of households potentially at risk of being unable to afford housing, to map the development of potential housing (un)affordability since 2000, and to trace the development of regional differences in the percentage of at-risk households in the Czech Republic.
Policy paper deals with an analysis of housing affordability and availability for social excluded in the Czech Republic based on the case studies and the experiences of non-profit organisations. Good practices and possible strategies to combat housing exclusion using in foreign countries are discussed in the paper. The objective of the paper is to propose tools directed to increase availability and affordability of housing for people at risk of social exclusion in the Czech republic.
The article examined relations between statistic housing financial affordability and demographic behavior in regions of the Czech Republic. The conducted analyses proved that the lower is housing affordability in region the higher is the average age of mothers and the lower is the total fertility rate. However, housing affordability influence more timing of the childbearing than the total fertility rate.
