Owning a house is better than a rented one. Only one advantage with rented houses that you can have it easily in any area of your choice not paying the wholesum amount required for buying .
Germany topping this chart really flips the common “renting = instability” narrative on its head. Shows how cultural norms and housing policies shape choices more than we realize.
That’s quite a range!
Germany topping the chart at 50.9% is surprising, considering its strong economy. Meanwhile, Croatia sits at the bottom with just 9.5% renters, homeownership clearly runs deep there.
It looks like Germany is the most desirable place to live if demand is driving prices up. I would have guessed someplace warmer like Spain, Greece or Portugal!
"Mutti" Merkel forcing EU to open borders for tens of millions of refugees, "refugees" and migrants might have something to do with increased demand for housing most people couldn't afford as owners.
Some live in the forests, holes and pits
Where do they even live? 😳
51% renting feels unreal to me, that's half the population without home ownership. Totally unimaginable in my context!
Strange to see this. Here we prefer to have our own homes.

Germany topping this list isn’t a shocker renting is practically a lifestyle there
But Croatia at just 9.5%? Looks like homeownership is still the dream in the Balkans.
Interesting how Western Europe leans rental while the East still holds tight to owning.
That’s quite a range!

Fascinating chart!
But maybe this shows how cultural norms, policies, and housing markets vary drastically across Europe.
Meanwhile Croatia, Lithuania, and Poland holding strong to home ownership traditions.
Definitely makes you think about affordability, mobility, and priorities across nations.
My country is not in the list and I think that's because we have a deep sense of property. Instead of renting, better buy it.
That's surprising, in Germany, more than 50% are living in rented accomodation!
