Across the European Union, the housing costs overburden rate measures the share of households whose housing expenses exceed 40% of their disposable income. New figures and commentary suggest this share has been gradually rising, pointing to a widening affordability squeeze in many member states. Discussion is focusing on which countries and income groups are most affected, and on mounting pressure for policy responses to Europe's housing affordability crisis.

Why now: Housing affordability is deteriorating across Europe, making official EU statistics on overburdened households newly relevant to public debate.
