Housing and inequality
The case of Luxembourg and its cross-border workers
The rate of homeownership is close to the OECD average in Luxembourg. However, strong house price increases, mainly driven by population growth and limited housing supply, led to a deterioration in affordability of housing, in particular for the young and added to the wealth gap between homeowners and renters.
Keywords: inequality, homeownership, cross-border workers, household survey, Luxembourg, wealth distribution
