THE AVAILABILITY OF HOUSING AS AN INDICATOR OF THE LEVEL THE POPULATION LIVING IN THE REGION
The analysis of the availability of housing for different categories of the population. The main indicator of the housing market from the point of view of possibility of purchasing flats citizens is the coefficient of housing affordability. the problem of affordability should be read in conjunction with three components availability of purchase (receipt) of housing in private property, hire of residential premises and payment of current (recurrent) costs associated with maintenance, repair and maintenance of housing. Also, because of the local nature of housing markets, high regional differentiation of the population incomes and the level of development of mortgage lending, the analysis of factors and indicators of access to housing must be made not only by the Russian Federation as a whole, but in the regional and municipal cut.
