The overcrowding rate in Italy is predicted to grow marginally from 20% in 2024 to 20.6% by 2028. This suggests a gradual but steady increase in the percentage of households experiencing overcrowding conditions over the forecast period. Compared to 2023, the year-on-year increase is minimal, with changes primarily observed in 2027 and 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five years indicates a subtle upward trend, reflecting ongoing challenges in housing capacity relative to household formation.
Future trends to watch:
- Government policies addressing affordable housing shortages
- Migration patterns impacting household density
- Economic factors influencing household formation and dwelling sizes
