Whether rental housing for low-income households, student apartments or trainee apartments, affordable housing in the city centre, new construction or modernization of existing apartments - social housing creates affordable housing in many different ways. At the same time, social housing contributes to ensuring that pensioners can remain in their familiar surroundings and students can find affordable accommodation.
