title: Tenure type and housing satisfaction in the Netherlands
ispublished: unpub
full_text_status: public
abstract: This thesis explores the relationship between housing satisfaction and tenure type
(owning vs. renting) in the Netherlands. The central research question is: "What
is the relationship between housing satisfaction and tenure type in the Netherlands
in 2021?" With the use of data, from the 2021 Netherlands’ Housing Survey
(WoON), this study performs a binary logistic regression analysis to examine how
tenure type is associated with housing satisfaction and how this relationship varies
across age cohorts. The analysis reveals that homeowners consistently report
higher levels of housing satisfaction compared to renters. This trend is observed
across all age cohorts, with key contributing factors including better housing
maintenance, and greater neighborhood satisfaction among homeowners. Renters,
particularly younger ones, show more variability in satisfaction and a higher desire
to move, indicating a less stable housing satisfaction.
