“…Due to the large number of foreign studies on housing quality, this research narrowed its focus mostly to the ones conducted over the last 10 years. Existing research can be divided into two categories: research dealing with tenant satisfaction with the conditions in the apartment (health conditions [18,[27][28][29], security [23,29], indoor thermal and acoustic comfort [30], and atmosphere and comfort [30,31]) and research that measures total satisfaction with housing through the assessment of apartments, buildings, and immediate surroundings [8,9,15,17,23,32,33].…”

An apartment is a basic need and a primary unit of human habitation, and in most cases, it represents the largest investment of someone's life. For that reason, and because of constant changes in housing needs, it is necessary to continuously evaluate the housing quality of apartments. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the criteria used for housing quality assessments in existing studies. Due to the large number of defined criteria, four groups of criteria were established: apartment unit quality criteria, apartment building quality criteria, neighborhood quality criteria, and social and economic criteria. The defined criteria can be divided according to the different scales of the assessed spaces (apartment unit, building, and neighborhood), and according to the method of assessment (quantitative or qualitative). The trend suggests that the numbers of individual criteria and criteria groups have increased over time, and they have become more complex. Also, it can be concluded that the number of criteria related to adaptability and sustainability will increase and lead to even more complex criteria relations. The defined criteria can be used in future research and serve as a basis for the proposal of a set of highly valuable criteria for examining attitudes toward housing quality.

Public housing programs are an effective strategy to provide adequate housing, not only in developed countries, but also developing countries. This study holistically investigates the sitting occupants’ perception of adequate housing towards their public housing units using Chongqing, a typical city in western China, as a case study. Results showed that generally, the public rental housing (PRH) programs were perceived to be adequate by their residents in the estates sampled. The components of neighborhood environment, housing unit, and affordability were the top three factors affecting the overall housing adequacy. The importance of physical aspects as well as the nonphysical aspects of adequate housing is likely to change according to their residential purpose. Therefore, the residential purpose of residents should be taken into consideration when planning the physical and nonphysical elements of public housing programs. Meanwhile, socioeconomic characteristics of age, family income, family members, residence length, and housing types have significant effects on overall housing adequacy and its components. These findings shed some useful insights on the sustainable development of public housing in China and provide a useful reference for future public housing developments in developing countries. The provision of adequate housing also helps to attract and retain talent, which consequently improves the competitiveness of the city.

“…Another part of human life besides working stays inside the house so that the condition of the house can affect the quality of human life, one of them is the health issue. Health is a substantial matter in human life; without good health, it is hard for humans to be productive [3]. The surroundings of the house affected directly the health of its inhabitants mainly from the physical environmental conditions and also affected indirectly from the characteristics and ownership of the house.…”
