Irene TINAGLI (S&D, IT), Chair of HOUS Special Commitee, holds a press conference on the public housing policies mission in Vienna (Austria). One of the aims of the European Parliament's mission is to identify what measures Vienna is taking to tackle the housing crisis, specifically focussing on its approach to social housing. In Vienna, over 60% of the residents live in subsidised apartments. The city's housing model combines public ownership, non-profit housing associations, and cooperative housing, making the city’s rent-to-income ratios significantly lower than in other European cities.
