Netherlands has a shortage due to lack of keeping up but that is also a problem for the social housing co-ops (which got hurt a lot by the global stock market crash due to the property crash as they had also invested in stocks...)

Granted I haven’t lived there for over 20 years but this doesn’t sound true from my personal experiences whenever I’ve visited. It’s not the upkeep that’s lacking as much as the shortage of new builds. It’s still a far better situation than most countries in the EU.

Bad English on my part I meant keeping up with demand. You are right, not enough houses being built atm and they are working on making it easier.

Many graduates still live at home as the rent is too high, but they earn too much for social housing.
