?:abstract
  • One of the global phenomena in the EU member countries is the aging of the population and the increase in the proportion of people of post-productive age. According to Eurostat's forecast, up to 32% of the population in Slovakia will be aged 65+ in 2070. One of the problems that people face in old age is the quality of housing. In recent years, we can observe a growing trend of older people, especially women, living alone, which increases the risk of insufficient income to provide basic needs at an adequate level. In the paper, we focus on the problem of severe housing deprivation of seniors in Slovakia and compare the severity of this problem with the average of the EU27 countries. We also examine the gender aspect of this phenomenon in the conditions of Slovakia and analyse it through several dimensions of severe material deprivation in the field of housing. We use statistical data from the regular statistical survey on the income and living conditions of EU residents (EU-SILC). Based on the analysis, we concluded that in the period from 2010 to 2020, the rate of severe housing deprivation reached decreasing trend in the average EU27 countries, and in Slovakia the development of this indicator was unstable. In the period 2014 and 2019, the rate of severe housing deprivation in Slovakia was above the EU27 average. Since the beginning of the EU-SILC statistical survey, we can observe that severe housing deprivation is higher among women 65+ than among men of this age category in Slovakia, although we note a positive trend in the decrease of women exposed to severe housing deprivation . The higher representation of women who are exposed to severe housing deprivation is a consequence of lower pensions, a higher life expectancy, as well as the fact that some live alone. Considering the persistence of severe housing deprivation of seniors in Slovakia, we will outline possible solutions to reduce the share of residents 65+ living in indecent housing conditions.
