Living conditions in Europe – 2018 edition

This publication provides a picture of living conditions in Europe in 2018, as well as the socio-economic
factors affecting the everyday life of Europeans. Chapter 1 focuses on the financial dimensions of
poverty and inequality. Chapter 2 examines to what extent a lack of adequate income can prevent
people from affording an adequate standard of living. Chapter 3 presents statistics with regard to the
quality of housing, while Chapter 4 provides information on the interactions between living conditions
and labour and health status. Finally, Chapter 5 provides an analysis of social participation and social
integration. The majority of the indicators presented in the publication come from European statistics
on income and living conditions (EU-SILC), with data up to 2016.
