The bar chart compares the proportion of students’ housing preferences between 1960s and 2000s.
Overall, most categories experienced a steady decrease in popularity, with the only notable exception being shared houses with other students, which rose dramaticcaly. While both staying at home and living in the hall of residence showed minor fluctuations, the proportion of students paying host families underwent a steady decline.
The most significant change can be seen in the percentage of students sharing accommodations, which doubled throughout the period, rising from 35% in the 1960s to 70% in the 2000s. In contrast, living with host families trend fell sharply by 30 percentage points from the same 35% in the 1960s to just 5% 50 years later.
Meanwhile, halls of residences experienced a slight fluctuation between 15% in the 1960s and 1980s to 20% in the 1970s and 1990s, before eventually dropping to just under 13% by the 2000s. Similarly, the figures for staying with own family indicated the gradual variation. After the downward experience from 15% in the 1960s to 5% in the 1980s and 1990s, it obtained the same 13% in the 2000s.
