Cu cheia în buzunar, chiriași în camera copilăriei: de ce tinerii români pleacă tot mai târziu de acasă • Știri Brașov Biz Brasov

In Romania, young people leave their parental homes at an average age of 27.4, slightly later than last year. Economic factors dominate the reasons for this delay, with many unable to afford independent living. Some young adults choose to return home to save money while pursuing new careers. The trend reflects a broader psychological acceptance of living with parents, influenced by rising housing costs and a lack of affordable options. The disparity in housing affordability varies significantly across regions, with urban areas like Cluj being much more expensive than others like Giurgiu. Additionally, the overall construction of new homes remains insufficient, exacerbating the housing crisis.
