To understand the scope and depth of the problem...
Who should collect data? state?
(should we count at all?)
service-providers?
How? Whom? Where?
researchers?

8. Data collection: Hungary 1
Since 1999 annual survey in Budapest services (mostly hostels and shelters):
February 3rd working group (service provider initiative)
In 2005 headcount as well
Since 2005, other service-providers in other cities joined
What is it good for?
●
Comparison of (concrete) service users from year-to-year – helps to plan the running of
the service
●
Comparison of services
We can find answers to concrete questions, and be surprised
We can compare data with other groups of the population
We can lobby for policy change based on evidence

9. Data collection: Hungary 2
Surprises
●
¾ of the homeless move between various forms of accommodation, ¼stable
on the street or in the service – the role of services can be to minimize the
time spent between flats
●
60% have some kind of a work income – it is growing – the working poor
●
20-25% are from Roma background (3x as much as national average)
●
Health: growth in people with serious health problems, over 60 population
not so different from rest of Hun population of that age group – importance
of access to health care

12. National Census 2001 1
People without homes on the basis of the census data [1]
Total number of people not living in housing units 260,653 persons
Of this: persons living in other inhabited housing units[2] 12,267 persons
People living in institutional households [3] 248,386 persons
of which:
in social institutions providing temporary accommodation 5,851 persons
•of which: in homeless accommodation 3,934 persons
•in workers’ hostels, mobile structures (barracks),
accommodation for employees, etc. 10 ,000 pers.
•in stations admitting refugees 1,697 persons
•in healthcare children’s homes, hospitals 3,657 persons
•in infant and children’s homes, corrective institutions,
establishments for homeless children 128,000 persons
in social homes, hospices, etc. 62,000 persons
•in detention facilities 17,000 persons
•in military accommodation 13,000 persons
[1]
The housing and life situations described in the summary may overlap each other.
[2]
Other inhabited housing unit: Those non-housing units (shops, offices, workshops, warehouses, laundries, garages, press houses, etc.)
that are used by at least one person for residing without any conversion, as well as temporary, mobile and other facilities (caravans, barges,
railway cars, caves, huts, booths, wagons, bus bodies, circus cars, etc.).
[3]
Institutional households is the group of those living in institutions, and there are provided with community accommodation or accommodation
and services, and at the theoretical time of the census they actually stayed at the place of registration, lived there permanently, the persons registered
at the given addresses could be regularly contacted, and the most frequently spent their nights there, went to work or study from there. The place of
the census can be the registered (permanent) address of the person concerned, the registered (temporary) place of residence, and even non-
registered address.

17. National Census 2001 6
10–12% of all the apartments are of substandard
quality, without or just partly equipped with conveniences, or
emergency apartments. In addition, more than 100
thousand people live at segregated colonies that are
hardly suitable for housing. Furthermore, serious structural
problems are faced: housing estates, old and deteriorating
districts, housing units in depopulating villages with
disadvantageous infrastructure, or block-type enclosures being
hardly suitable for housing call for different solutions.

UNDERSTANDING HOMELESSNESS AND HOUSING EXCLUSION IN ENHR
THE NEW EUROPEAN CONTEXT
18. National Census 2001 7
The affordability of housing costs represents serious
problems for low-income groups, which is not solely associated
with low incomes (unemployment, individual disadvantaged
situations), but the differing costs of the various housing units
(e.g. large costs carried by apartments in housing estates with
district heating). In more than 20% of Hungarian
households, the proportion of housing costs exceeds 30% of
the volume of incomes. In 2003, cc. 500 thousand
households had arrears threatening the security of housing,
while only 180–200 thousand households received housing
support.
European Research Conference, Budapest, 17th September 2010
UNDERSTANDING HOMELESSNESS AND HOUSING EXCLUSION IN ENHR
THE NEW EUROPEAN CONTEXT
19. National Census 2001 8
The proportion of lease apartments owned by local
governments dropped from 22% to 4% due to the
privatization of apartments in the 1990s and the conditions
of support–taxation–incentives, while the proportion of
privately owned lease apartments was cc. 4%. (Meaning
that the proportion of privately owned apartments is
outstandingly large within the European Union, i.e. 92%.)
Thus, the traditional housing base of social housing policy
narrowed (lease apartments of local governments), and on
the other hand there emerged no comprehensive system to
guarantee the security of housing, and manage social and
housing policy elements in a standard manner.
