The challenge of finding affordable housing is growing across Europe. Many people struggle to find a good place to live. There is increasing pressure on governments and local communities to fix this problem.
Latvia has one of the smallest supplies of affordable housing in Europe.
The quality of the housing is also often poor, families live in overcrowded conditions, and buying a house is not easy. The lack of suitable rental homes has forced many young professionals and families to live far from their workplaces or in accommodation that does not meet basic standards.
