Bydlení v ČR - představy a ekonomická realita

This paper deals primarily with the problem of the accessibility of housing in the Czech Republic. On the basis of data drawn from the study on Attitudes to Housing in the Czech Republic 2001, the satisfaction of the Czech population with current housing is assessed. The second part of the paper focuses on an evaluation of housing accessibility in the Czech Republic. Physical accessibility is compared with the situation in other selected countries. The financial accessibility of privately owned housing is determined for cases in which the household relies only on its own financial resources (savings) and situations in which a combination of building society savings and mortgage loans may be used.
