Figures describe homes, including apartments, rather than detached houses only. Most values are from Eurostat’s 2023 survey. The remaining countries use the source named in their row. Values marked “estimated” are calculated from official floor-area bands or from floor area per person and household size. Russia is an urban proxy, and the United Kingdom uses England as its proxy. Montenegro covers occupied dwellings; Moldova covers registered occupied and unoccupied dwellings. Iceland (2012) and Bosnia and Herzegovina (2015) are historical. Years, coverage and measurement methods vary, so close rankings should be treated as approximate. All 42 countries are ranked into three equal groups of 14. Russia and Cyprus are included; Turkey is excluded.
