This publication provides an easy-to-read and visually engaging summary of a study on financially accessible housing that was conducted in 2020 in collaboration with the Major Development Agency of Thessaloniki MDAT-S.A. and Aristoteles University of Thessaloniki - AUTH. The study highlights the necessity of financially accessible housing in Greece, particularly in light of recent economic conditions, by examining various factors such as housing costs and expenses. It then focuses on the city of Thessaloniki, analyzing the social geography of the city's residences, the pressures of the housing market and the housing needs of its citizens. The study aims to determine which housing options are financially accessible for the people of Thessaloniki. Additionally, it examines the characteristics of the target beneficiaries of the Financially Accessible Residence program, as well as the types of housing available in Thessaloniki. The report then presents best practices for the production and distribution of financially accessible housing and explores how the Greek institutional framework can support such initiatives. Finally, the study concludes with recommendations for local projects that aim to provide financially accessible housing in Thessaloniki.
