Definition

Share of the population living in a dwelling owned by a member of their household, with or without a mortgage or loan outstanding (EU statistics on income and living conditions, EU-SILC).

Eurostat publishes this as the EU measure of home ownership. It counts people, not homes: the US homeownership rate counts owner-occupied housing units as a share of occupied units, so the two are not comparable. The reference year is the survey year.
