Housing Construction in Austria Reaches Record Low in 2025
Published
Housing construction in Austria fell to a new low in 2025. Statistik Austria announced this on Friday, based on preliminary data. The figures show that fewer homes were built last year than in the years before.
For many people in Austria, this is an important issue, because housing construction directly affects the supply on the housing market. When fewer new homes are built, it can become harder to find a suitable apartment. This especially affects families, young people, and people who want to live in cities.
Statistik Austria is working with preliminary data. This means that the final figures may still be revised later. Nevertheless, the publication provides a clear indication of the current trend in the construction industry.
Overall, the decline shows that housing construction in Austria is currently struggling. The further development in the coming months will show whether the trend continues or whether the situation improves again.
