The project will reveal, quantify and analyze actual regional disparities (among regions NUTS 3) in availability and affordability of housing in the Czech Republic. The time series describing the development of such disparities will be provided. The project will also analyse the influence of changes in housing conditions, in general, and the changes in regional disparities in housing conditions (availability and affordability of housing), in particular, on their potential selected socio-economic consequences. In this respect the project will use the original new methodology for measurement of availability and affordability of housing that reflects the particular situation in transitional countries.
The goal of the project is also to identify such factors that, on one side, influence the level of availability and affordability of housing and their regional disparities, and, on the second side, may be effectively shaped by public interventions. The goal is to propose such effective and efficient measures (tools) that would:
- increase availability and affordability of housing;
- decrease the regional disparities in availability and affordability of housing;
- decrease negative socio-economic consequences of low availability and affordability of housing and high regional disparities in availability and affordability of housing - especially consequences on demographic behaviour patterns of young generation, flexibility of labour and spatial social segregation of households endangered by unaffordability of housing;
- increase availability of particular types of housing especially in regions where there is high discrepance between housing supply and housing need (housing demand) of particular types of housing;
- increase availability of housing through particular effective and efficient tools on housing refurbishment;
- increase availability of housing through the introduction of new forms of rental housing.

The paper focuses on the analysis of regional differences in the affordability of rent housing in the Czech Republic. The analysis is based on a new measurement methodology, reckoning with the inapplicability of the survey sampling for regional segmentation. The aim was to tell whether the disparities in rental housing affordability among regions, and among various household types, had been decreasing or increasing between 2000 and 2007.
The study includes comparison of migration levels among selected EU-27 countries, analysis of regional differences in the level of internal migration in the CR, overview of selected theories explaining the relationship between housing conditions and labour migration, results of empirical analysis of the relationships between regional differences in housing affordability and level of internal migration in the CR, and proposal of tools supporting labour migration in the CR.
The aim of the article is to highlight the connection between the labour and housing markets, focused on the barriers potentially obstructing the labour migration. Negative influence of growing share of owner-occupied housing on willingness to move was documented for the Czech Republic. The regional differences in housing affordability are another factor which poses barrier for labour migration, especially for individuals/households of lower qualifications.
The paper focuses on the development of rental housing affordability in regions of the Czech republic in the period 2000-2006. The aim of the paper is to discover whether the disparities have been growing or shrinking among regions and among different types of households.
The paper focuses on the development of regional inequalities in rental housing (un)affordability in Czech Republic. The aim of the paper is to identify "model" types of household which are potentially at risk of being unable to afford "adequate" housing in case of no regulation. The development of regional differences in housing "unaffordability" in the period 2000-2007 is analysed.
