OECD국가의 사회주택 공급분석을 통한 주거복지정책의 방향성 제시

Direction of Housing Welfare Policy through the Analysis of Social Housing Supply in OECD Countries

Korea has been supplying public rental housing since the 1990s to solve the housing instability problem of low income families. As a result, the inventories of public rental housing have increased significantly, but there is an opinion that the change of policy is needed because the supply is limited at high cost. In particular, it is necessary to actively analyze and apply social housing supply methods in OECD countries. The purpose of this study is to analyze the social housing supply status in OECD countries and to obtain implications for the appropriateness of public rental housing policy in Korea and for future plans. To this end, cluster analysis was conducted based on the supply ratio of social housing and the supply institutions to analyze the social housing supply direction of OECD countries by type. After performing cluster analysis, differences were analyzed through average comparison analysis for each group of countries. A total of 19 countries that provided data for analysis to the OECD were classified into two clusters. In the first group, countries with high social housing and relatively limited restrictions on occupancy were included. In the second group, the share of social housing was relatively low, but the share of the public sector and economic growth rate were high. In Korea, cluster analysis shows that they belong to two clusters but are gradually transitioning to the types of countries in the first cluster. The results of these studies suggest that realistic supply plans should be established considering the characteristics of each country when establishing policies for the supply of social housing.
