Abstract

The paper aims to investigate factors connected with the residential satisfaction of the adolescents and to compare them with the factors influencing residential satisfaction among adults. The primary research was conducted in secondary schools in the Bialystok Functional Area. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and a multinomial logistic regression model. The results show that living standards are a crucial issue in residential satisfaction. Living in an owner-occupied dwelling and having one’s own room reduced the likelihood of being dissatisfied with housing.
