The survey showed that 45% of families consider the current number of rooms in housing insufficient for comfortable living, and among families with children, this figure reaches 60%. Experts note that the housing issue directly affects the demographic situation: 28.2 million Russians of reproductive age postpone the birth of children, including due to cramped living conditions.

Families with children and those planning to replenish make up the bulk of those in need of better housing conditions — 14.6 million households. They account for 54% of the solvent demand for housing in the medium term, and more than 4 million families plan to get a mortgage in the next five years.
Mikhail Goldberg, head of the State Corporation's Analytical Center, stressed that in order to solve the housing issue, it is necessary to increase supply volumes, including through individual housing construction and support for apartment housing projects.
