A Review of Empirical Research on Contemporary Needs and Conditions in Housing in the Context of Flexibility

This paper presents the results of a previous empirical research on users’ needs and living conditions in multi-family housing units in the city of Ni？,based on a German study of flexible housing named “Flexible Wohnungen”. The research involved the interviewing of tenants about different aspects of living in multifamily housing, with particular reference to the flexible housing programme and its implementation in practice. By systematising and comparing the achieved results with the results of foreign research, certain conclusions can be made on the universal housing needs and current living conditions in the city of Ni？
