Main residences

The average number of main residences in 2011 was 3 650 400. This extrapolated value which also stands for the number of private households in the new micro census is about 26 000 higher than recorded in 2010.

The quota for the best equipped dwellings (with bathroom or shower cabinet, WC and central heating) in 2011 was 92.0% compared to 91.4% in 2010 and just 86.4% in 2001. 2011 and 2010 under 2% of all main residences were substandard dwellings (without indoor WC). Ten years ago, (2001) this share was about 3.2%. In Vienna the contingent of these substandard dwellings was significantly above the average for whole Austria (2011: 4.6%; 2001: 8.7%).

The shares of dwellings classified by tenure fluctuate only in the range of tenths of percentage points: the quota for dwellings inhabited by house owners accounts for two-fifths (39.3%) in 2011 and 2010; owner-occupied freehold dwellings (in multiple-storey residential buildings) were just under 11%; rented dwellings also had nearly identical percentages in both years (40.0%; 39.9%).

Notes: Tables where the source is specified as “Microcensus” generally have a very detailed structure; for all dwelling frequencies projected nationwide that are less than 16 000 dwellings and for values derived from these frequencies, the relative sampling error – which is calculated approximately – is at least +/-20% with 95% statistical certainty. For Länder (federal province) results, the relative sampling error exceeds the 20% mark for a projected number of dwellings that is less than … (Burgenland 4 000, Carinthia 6 000, Lower Austria 16 000, Upper Austria 16 000, Salzburg 6 000, Styria 13 000, Tyrol 8 000, Vorarlberg 3 500, Vienna 22 000).
