Approximately one third of people in Slovakia live crowded in a small flat with their parents and grandparents.

Omissions

• The overcrowding rate measures the lack of sufficient rooms per household member, NOT specifically whether people live with their parents and grandparents; the multigenerational composition asserted by the MEP is not what the indicator captures.
• The most specific figure located (31.8%) refers to 2022 data, i.e. more than 2 years before the session date of 2026-10-07; a more recent Slovakia-specific value could not be confirmed within the search budget.
• Only one source (Trading Economics, citing Eurostat) provides the Slovakia-specific figure; no primary Eurostat page with the exact Slovakia value could be retrieved, so the exact magnitude rests on a single secondary source.
