Abstract

The Household Living Conditions Survey 2012 provides information on poverty analysis in Ukraine. The results of the household survey are used in Ukraine for analyzing various issues, among which poverty, access to material benefits, subjective self-evaluation by households of their level of well-being are of special priority. The data obtained through this survey makes it possible to carry out methodologically comparative poverty studies using almost all above criteria.

The data can be used to analyze the following: - social-demographic characteristics of household members; - expenditures and consumption; - income and other resources, including those coming from subsidiary farming; - housing conditions; - availability of durable goods; - evaluation of health conditions and access to medical goods and services; - evaluation of well-being level and economic expectations; - access to certain goods and services; - access to information and communication technologies.

Geographic coverage

National, except some settlements within the territories suffered from the Chernobyl disaster.

Analysis unit

• Households,
• Individuals.

A household is a totality of persons who jointly live in the same residential facilities of part of those, satisfy all their essential needs, jointly keep the house, pool and spend all their money or portion of it. These persons may be relatives by blood, relatives by law or both, or have no kinship relations. A household may consist of one person (Law of Ukraine "On Ukraine National Census of Population," Article 1). As only 0.50% households have members with no kinship relations (0.65% total households if bachelors are excluded), the contemporary concepts "household" and "family" are very close.

Universe

Whole country, all private households. The survey does not cover collective households, foreigners temporarily living in Ukraine as well as the homeless.

Kind of data

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure

The survey covers only private households. The sample does not include marginal population groups (individuals without permanent place of residence, etc.). Annual full rotation of respondents is used. Every five years survey territories are rotated. The territorial sampling excludes residential areas that are located in the exclusion and compulsory resettlement zone affected by radioactive contamination as a result of the Chernobyl nuclear power station accident. Sampling is done by stratified multistage probability sampling methods. The sampling methodology ensures that each household has a certain non-zero probability of being selected.

Mode of data collection

Research instrument

The household living conditions survey includes three components and uses various survey tools to obtain information.

I. Collecting general data on a household - basic interview. Interviewing of households takes place at the survey commencement stage based on the adequate questionnaire program on general basic household features: household composition, housing facilities, availability and use of land plots, cattle and poultry, and also characteristics of household members: anthropometric data, education, employment status, etc. In addition, while interviewing, the interviewer completes a household composition check card to trace any changes during the entire survey period.

II. Observation of household expenditures and incomes over a quarter. For the observation, two survey tools are used: Weekly diary of current expenditures, which is completed directly by a household twice a quarter. In the diary respondents (households) record all daily expenditures in details (e.g. for purchased foodstuffs - product description, its weight and value, and place of purchase). In addition, a household puts into the diary information on consumption of products produced in private subsidiary farming or received as a gift.

Households are evenly distributed among rotation groups, who complete diaries in different week days of every quarter. Assuming that the two weeks data are intrinsic for the entire quarter, the single time period of data processing (quarter) is formed by means of multiplying diary data by ratio 6.5 (number of weeks in a quarter divided on the number of weeks when diary records were made). Inclusion of foodstuffs for long-time consumption is done based on quarterly interview data.

Quarterly questionnaire is used in quarterly interviewing of households in the first month following the reporting quarter. At this state, we collect data on large and irregular expenditures, in particular those relating to the purchase of foodstuffs for long-time consumption (e.g. sacks, etc.), and also data on household incomes. Since recalling all incomes and expenditures made in a quarter is uneasy, households make records during a quarter in a special 'Quarterly expenditures log'.

The major areas for quarterly observation are the following: - structure of consumer financial expenditures for goods and services; - structure of other expenditures (material aid to other households, expenditures for private subsidiary farming, purchase of real estate, construction and major repair of housing facilities and outbuildings, accumulating savings, etc); - importance of private subsidiary farming for household welfare level (receipt and use of products from private subsidiary farming for own consumption, financial income from sales of such products, etc.); - structure of income and other financial sources of a household. We separately study the income of every individual household member (remuneration of labor, pension, scholarship, welfare, etc.) and the income in form payments to a household as a whole (subsidies for children, aid of relatives and other persons, income from - sales of real estate and property, housing and utility subsidies, use of savings, etc.).

III. Single-time topical interviews Questionnaires are used for quarterly interviewing.

Quarterly topical interviews covered the following: - household expenditures for construction and repair of housing facilities and outbuilding; - availability in a household of durable goods; - assessment by households members of own health and accessibility of selected medical services; - self-assessment by a household of adequacy of its income; - a household's access to Internet.

In general, consumption recorded a resilient increase. Bearing housing with ball bearing consumption peaked in 2024 and is expected to retain growth in the near future.

Over 1.2 million refugees from Ukraine due to the Russian invasion fled to Germany as of January 2025. Furthermore, the second-highest number was recorded in Russia as of the end of 2024. In total, around 6.3 million Ukrainian refugees were registered across Europe and 6.8 million worldwide as of January 2025. Most of them fled the country by crossing the border with Poland. Ukrainian refugees in Germany As of January 2025, over 1.2 million refugees from Ukraine were recorded in Germany. The first increases in the number of Ukrainian refugees were registered in March and April 2022. At the end of January 2023, over one million refugees were officially counted by the authorities. Germany had the highest monthly financial allowance for Ukrainians who fled the war compared to other European countries as of June 2022. Temporary protection for Ukrainian refugees in the EU European Union (EU) members implemented the Temporary Protection Directive (TPD), which guaranteed access to accommodation, welfare, and healthcare to refugees from Ukraine. People fleeing the war had a right to a residence permit in the EU, enter the labor market, and enroll children in educational institutions. The protection is granted until March 4, 2026, but it can be extended in the future depending on the situation in the country.

Building contractors and developers depend on various socio-economic factors, including property values, underlying sentiment in the housing market, the degree of optimism among downstream businesses and credit conditions. All of these drivers typically track in line with economic sentiment, with recent economic shocks spurring a difficult period for building contractors and developers. Nonetheless, the enduring need for building services, particularly to tackle housing shortages across the continent, ensures a strong foundation of work. Revenue is forecast to decline at a compound annual rate of 2.9% to €1.1 trillion over the five years through 2024. Building construction output recorded strong and consistent growth across Europe in the years leading up to the pandemic, buoyed by rising house prices and a return to economic stability as the effects of the financial crisis faded. Operational and supply chain disruption caused by the pandemic reversed the fortunes of building contractors and developers in 2020, as on-site activity tumbled and downstream clients either cancelled, froze or scaled back investment plans. Aided by the release of pent-up demand and supportive government policy, building construction output rebounded in 2021. Excess demand for key raw materials led to extended lead times during this period, while input costs recorded a further surge as a result of the effects of rapidly climbing energy prices following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Soaring costs and the impact of the economic slowdown on both the housing market and investor sentiment have led to a renewed slowdown in building construction activity across the continent. Revenue is forecast to decline by 1.5% in 2024. Revenue is forecast to increase at a compound annual rate of 4.9% to €1.5 trillion over the five years through 2029. Activity is set to remain sluggish in the medium term, as weak economic growth continues to constrain investor sentiment and high borrowing costs hold back the housing market. Contractors and developers will increasingly rely on public sector support, including measures to boost the supply of new housing as countries seek to tackle severe housing shortages.
