Not in the US. I live here: https://www.bundesbank.de/en/publications/research/research-...

Keep in mind that the mentioned "social housing factor" does exist, but it is also almost entirely in the hands of Gen X and older because building social housing had already stalled by that time.

No progress since 1980, unfortunately. Just oscillated a few points up and down from 65% https://www.census.gov/econ/currentdata/dbsearch?programCode...

It's not an "unfortunately", the U.S. population has increased 50% since 1980, using US census markers ~226m in 1980 to ~331m in 2020. It's an amazing benchmark to be at the same ownership rate despite growing this much in such a short time frame.

Further, ownership going beyond certain numbers does not necessarily mean good either.
